Scottish Breakfast loose-leaf tea has a real full-bodied character with malty flavour and hints of oak. You wouldn't expect anything else from a Scottish Breakfast tea, so we won't disappoint you! Black tea leaves blended from India, China, and Kenya create a tea that's especially delicious with milk. The Assam malty flavour is enhanced by China Black Keemun Gold and a Chingwo County Orange Pekoe. Aye, it's a grand cuppa tea!

Of course, commercial tea of any type would not be as we know today had it not been for a very clever Scotsman, Robert Fortune. A professional botanist and spy in the 1800's, Robert's journeys through China proved to be central in shaping the course of tea history. You can read all about his exploits in our article at the Tea Hub - Robert Fortune - Scotland's other 007!
