Does Classic Black Tea contain caffeine?

Yes, it contains moderate caffeine, typical of black teas. However, Classic Black's smooth character makes it feel less intense than other black teas.

No, our Classic Black Tea is bright, brisk, and smooth! It rarely turns bitter, even with slightly longer steeping times.

What flavor profile should I expect?

Expect malty, smooth, lightly sweet, and full-bodied flavors. Classic Black Tea offers a rounded character that is both comforting and sophisticated.

Can black tea be drunk without milk?

Yes! In fact, it is best enjoyed plain, allowing you to fully appreciate its smooth flavor notes. Adding milk can mask the tea's delicate complexity.

How do I brew it properly?

Steep 1 teaspoon per 8 oz. of 206°F water for 3-5 minutes. Black tea is forgiving and won't become overly bitter with slightly longer steeping.

Is this tea good for beginners?

Absolutely! Our Classic Black Tea's flavor profile makes it incredibly approachable for anyone new to loose leaf tea. It's a perfect introduction to premium black teas.

Does black tea pair well with food?

Yes! Classic Black Tea's bright, brisk flavor makes it a great accompaniment to a wide range of foods. It pairs exceptionally well with breakfast pastries, eggs, or mild cheeses.

Can this tea be iced?

Yes! Classic Black makes a smooth, lightly cocoa-toned iced tea. Try cold brewing it overnight for an even smoother, naturally sweeter cup.

Can I re-steep black tea?

Yes. Our high-quality black tea leaves can be re-steeped once or twice for additional cups. We recommend re-steeping only within the first hour for optimal flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Black tea is fully oxidized, which develops its bold, robust flavors and gives it a darker color. This oxidation process enhances natural sweetness, brightness, and briskness, creating a fuller, more assertive taste.
