This is our strongest 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. 

The leaf is selected from selected fields and harvests across the Satemwa Estate; a small, family run tea garden in the Shire Highlands of Malawi.

Deliciously different

A rich tea that handles milk and a bit of sugar very well. I'm used to blends that include assam, if not entirely assam, for my usual morning cuppa, so I was curious what this would taste like. I find it very different but equally satisfying. It's malty, but not so dark as assam, yet equally robust in flavor. It's also wonderfully smooth, and I agree with someone else who said no tannins. The one thing I notice over and over is the taste of grains, reminding me of good ole wheat flakes, so it truly makes a wonderful "breakfast" tea! I likely will purchase again.

It really is faster!

At the office, I don't always have time to steep tea properly but we do have a Keurig machine. My wife gave me a refillable mesh pod designed for coffee grounds but I tried it with tea. The water passes through too quickly for full leaf varieties, but Speedy Breakfast can handle it. (It's good, too!)

Brilliant

I was bought this tea as a gift and I'm so pleased because I've been looking for ethical, loose leaf tea for ages! Will definitely buy more!

Best loose black leaf tea with milk

This is my favourite go to tea especially in the mornings. The rich malty robust flavour ticks all the right boxes for a luxurious breakfast tea. It also infuses really quickly. I like my tea strong and milky and this tea is the perfect balance of a wake me up and a soother.

Great pick me up

This loose leaf tea gives good strength of taste and I like that it's a tea that supports RAF Heroes.

Satemwa Estate

Blended from selected fields and harvests across the Satemwa Estate; a small, family run tea garden in the Shire Highlands of Malawi.

Speedy Breakfast is a blend of loose leaf, black tea of the highest quality that has been cut a bit finer to infuse faster. Perfect for those times you need a very decent mug of tea with no compromise on flavour or provenance.
