Strong teas and aromatic blends

In this category, you will find black tea in classic varieties, aromatic blends and selected styles for different tastes. Some teas are strong and malty, while others are spicier, more floral or finely aromatic.

At TeaSense, you can discover loose teas such as Assam, Ceylon, Earl Grey, Chai blends and other selected varieties. Many taste excellent on their own, while stronger blends also pair well with milk or a little rock sugar.

How to prepare black tea

For most varieties, we recommend about 2 g of tea per 200 ml of water. Pour hot water at 90–95 °C over the leaves and let them steep for 3–5 minutes, depending on the variety. A shorter steeping time gives a milder cup, while a longer steeping time creates a stronger flavour.

Depending on the blend, you can enjoy black tea on its own, with milk, with rock sugar or cold as iced tea. Stronger varieties such as Assam or broken tea blends are especially suitable with milk.
