Strong black teas with smaller leaf grades<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

In this category, you will find Broken Tea<\/strong>. These are black teas with smaller leaf grades created during processing. As a result, they often produce a stronger infusion and a deeper cup colour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

These teas are a good choice if you enjoy a full-bodied, spicy or malty cup. Depending on the range, you may find Assam, Darjeeling, Ceylon or other broken grades here.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Buy Broken Tea online<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

If you want to buy Broken Tea online, you will find selected loose black teas with a strong character. Many product pages also include information about flavour, origin and preparation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Broken grades are well suited to a classic morning cup. They also work well with milk or as a stronger afternoon infusion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What does Broken mean?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

The term Broken refers to tea leaves that are broken into smaller pieces during processing. Because the pieces are smaller than whole leaves, they often release their flavour more quickly.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The final character still depends on the origin and variety. Assam Broken can taste particularly malty and full-bodied. Darjeeling Broken, by contrast, may be more aromatic and lively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

How to prepare Broken Tea<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

For many varieties, we recommend water at around 90\u201395 \u00b0C and a steeping time of 3\u20135 minutes. However, origin and leaf grade can affect the preparation. Therefore, always check the instructions on the product page.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

For a milder cup, shorten the steeping time slightly. For a stronger flavour, use a little more tea or let it steep for longer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
