A truely majestic tea
A delicious tea - this was the first I tried when I started buying from Rare Tea and it opened my eyes to how tea can be of such high quality. This particular tea is rich and velvety in the mouth. I drink tea without milk so the delicate flavours are more apparent. I think once you start drinking tea of this quality you'll not want to go back to the supermarket brands

Exquisite tea
Rich, soothing, comforting, extreme flavour and aroma on second and third brew as well. Unique experience.

Perfect Breakfast tea
I have been buying Chinese Emperor’s black tea for some years now. It is my go to morning cuppa if you like subtlety of flavour combined with real depth of character. I enjoy it as nature intended, without milk or sugar. Highly recommended.

Absolute Favourite
This is my all-time favourite tea, drinkable at any time of the day but always a moment to saviour. I've been drinking it for many years and has never been anything less than perfection. For people who are used to 'normal' breakfast teas, the natural sweetness of this tea will amaze you. It is a must try for any tea lover.

A lively morning tea
I drink two cups early in the day and before eating. It gets my day off to a good start. My brew is not too strong and is ***** neat - no additions. A very healthy beverage on top of all else.
