Heavenly
This is my Sunday morning tea, when it's time for something special!! It is so full of flavour yet so delicate! Not to be missed
As delicious as it is ethical
This is a beautiful tea, and just perfect after meals. I love that it is sourced from small-holders across the Satemwa Tea Estate - a rare approach to business trade, but with wonderful results for the smaller farmers and their families. You can taste the cooperation and collaboration in the tea's complexity - Rare Tea Company is true to its name!
Superb!
The parcel has just arrived, and I couldn’t wait to brew my first cup of Emperor‘s Breakfast as a special treat before lunch. How complex, how delicious! There are notes of biscuit, cocoa, butterscotch, vanilla, even a hint of peach - this tea will be one of my all-time favourites.
All time favourite
Emperor's breakfast is the first tea I have ever tried from you back in 2010. It is now the tea I use to win everyone over to join in on loose leaf tea, now my mum drinks it too and by brother can't get enough either. To me it tastes like malty toffee at first and ends on a vanilla bean note. So delicious.
This is the one tea I can't do without.
If I could only drink one tea for the rest of my life, this would be it. Get the infusion just right (about a minute and a half - 80 degrees water temperature) and the flavours are just exquisite. There's a delicious biscuityness to it which I just love and it stands up to at least two infusions.
