This is our strongest loose leaf English breakfast tea. If you are looking for swift power this is the one for you.
We have used a finer cut of tea to infuse faster. It has been blended for delicious malty depth and intensity. Speedy is particularly good enjoyed with a silky drop of milk.
This loose leaf tea is from selected fields and harvests across the Satemwa Estate; a small, family-run tea garden in the Shire Highlands of Malawi.

More infusion tips
How to infuse your tea is very personal, and these are just our recommendations based on experience. Please experiment with these variables to your heart's delight. These are our recommendations, not hard and fast rules. The most delicious tea is the one you love.
Our guide uses a standard tea cup size (150ml/5.5 oz) as a measure, please adjust the quantity of leaf accordingly for less or more water. Our whole loose leaves are of such a high quality that you can infuse our teas at least twice, and the second infusion is often better than the first, with different flavours revealed as the leaf softens. If you prefer your tea stronger, add more leaf, don’t leave it for longer (this will just make it bitter).
