Birchall English Breakfast Tea – 25 Enveloped Plant-Based Tea Bags

Kickstart your morning with a deliciously strong breakfast tea bursting with full, traditional flavor. Birchall English Breakfast Tea is a unique, masterful blend, with a closely guarded recipe passed down through five generations of the Birchall Graham family. To ensure that the vibrant aroma and freshness are perfectly captured until the moment of brewing, each of the 25 tea bags is individually sealed in an eco-friendly protective envelope.

The Pristine Terroir of East Africa

The exceptional brightness, golden color, and strong refreshing flavor of this signature blend are rooted in its premium East African heritage. Birchall sources its leaves entirely from elite, high-altitude tea estates stretching from Rwanda through to the Great Rift Valley in Kenya.

Nestled along the Congo-Nile Crest at equatorial altitudes of 1,460 to 4,500 meters above sea level, the tea bushes benefit from rich volcanic soil, cool temperatures, and high rainfall. These unique geographic conditions cause the leaves to grow at a slower rate, developing a significantly deeper and more robust flavor profile before being carefully hand-picked. Furthermore, the estates provide vital local jobs and run a successful co-operative for over 2,600 independent farmers.

Birchall guarantees that world-class taste goes hand-in-hand with environmental and social care. This blend is Fairtrade Certified (100% traded in compliance with Fairtrade Standards) and fully Rainforest Alliance Certified™. The entire packaging is completely plastic-free:

Everyday Tea Bags: Crafted from a natural blend of Abaca and cellulosic fibers, certified for both home and industrial composting.
