Classic English Breakfast Tea

English Breakfast is one of the classic black tea blends and is traditionally prized for its bold character. Stassen English Breakfast is offered as a "Finest Tea Blend" and is ideal for anyone who prefers a classic, aromatic black tea. The tea can be enjoyed plain or served with milk and sugar, according to personal preference.

What does BOP1 mean?

Stassen English Breakfast features the BOP1 (Broken Orange Pekoe 1) leaf grade. BOP1 refers to a grade consisting of broken tea leaves. Leaf grading primarily describes the size and texture of the tea leaves rather than a flavor profile. Also important: The term "Orange Pekoe" does not indicate an orange flavor; this product is a classic black tea with no orange flavoring.

Loose-leaf tea for customized portioning

As Stassen English Breakfast is sold as loose-leaf tea, the quantity can be adjusted to suit your desired strength. A good starting point is approximately 1 teaspoon of tea per 200–250 ml of water.

Preparation

Dosage: approx. 1 teaspoon per 200–250 ml of water
Water temperature: approx. 100°C
Steeping time: approx. 3–5 minutes

Pour freshly boiled water over the tea and let it steep according to your desired strength. The tea can be served plain or with milk and sugar, to taste.

Yellow tin with spoon

A special feature of this Stassen English Breakfast is its presentation in a decorative yellow tin. The product also includes a spoon, which is handy for portioning the loose-leaf tea. This makes it not only a great addition to your own tea collection but also an excellent gift for black tea lovers.
