This blend of organic seasonal quality tea was originally created for afternoon Tea at The Empress. The Assam component (2nd flush June production) gives a thick, malty and full-bodied character; the Kenya (Nandi region, January production) and Tanzania (Usambara region, January production) components give floral-like flavor and a golden coppery infusion; the South Indian component (Nilgiri mountains, January production) gives superb fruity and sprightly flavour with a lovely finish; the Ceylon (Dimbula region, January production) gives an airy, almost piquant, flavor that opens the blend; and the China (Anhui province, April production) gives a burgundy depth with light oaky notes. Truly one of the world's great teas! Gluten free.
Pair with any of our Luxe sugars to add a little sweet with a little extra to spice it up. Salted Caramel, Vanilla or Rose will add a rich flavor. Any of the fruit or citrus flavors will give this tea fruity burst.
Box contains 2 individually sealed bags containing 24 tea bags in each. Please note tea bags are not individually wrapped.
48 two cup tea bags will yield 96 cups of tea. Perfect for a large mug and tea pot use.

Having had Tea at The Impress many times, I always went home with a box of this lovely tea. Many years have gone by now and I ran out..... I am so pleased to be able to do shopping online. Age has caught up with me, but I will enjoy having my tea with fond memories of Victoria and the Empress.
We first enjoyed the afternoon tea at the Empress Hotel on Victoria Island in 2014 and immediately fell in love with the fragrant and rich tea. From then on, we kept ordering it and made it our ritual in the afternoon. It is very relaxing and fits very well into our busy working schedule. We also use the afternoon tea with the desserts and hors d'oeuvre I made to entertain guests. It is indeed the best tea we have tasted. We often pair it with a little half-and-half and no sugar, which adds a layer of flavor to it.

We took an Alaskan Cruise almost a decade ago and one option was to enjoy Afternoon Tea at the Empress Hotel. The tea they served was excellent, so a bought some to take home. I have been purchasing it regularly ever since. It’s always a favorite with friends and guests too. I never allow myself to run out!
This is an excellent flavorful tea. I prefer a bit of milk; however it is equally satisfying taken black.
