{"title":"Black Teas","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBlack loose leaf teas: Buy the best.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlack tea is perhaps the most familiar to us. These teas are allowed to oxidise during manufacture but there are considerable variations in method. This gives black tea immense variety of character. Our black loose leaf teas include Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri, Nepalese, China, Ceylon and Kenyan teas. Our loose black tea is only made by the orthodox method and we have the best quality large leaf grades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"extra-content\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eHaving been picked, typically using the two leaves and a bud principle, the fresh teas are withered in the open air. This wilting stage reduces the moisture content in the leaf. They are then torn and rolled which makes the green leaves turn black through oxidation, a natural consequence of being exposed to the air. After a few hours the tea is then fired to stop oxidation. The tea is finally graded by leaf size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eBlack tea is drunk either with or without milk. This depends upon whether it is a light or a full bodied. China and Darjeeling teas are light and are therefore best without. Lapsang Souchong, more full bodied Keemuns and Yunnan are exceptions. Assam, Ceylon, and especially Dimbula teas are full bodied and therefore should be drunk with milk. All black tea has varying amounts of tannin and this gives it a dry, biscuity character in common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cbutton class=\"read-more-btn\" onclick=\"toggleText()\"\u003eRead more\u003c\/button\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"black-coll-tea-collection-grid\"\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/loose-leaf-chinese-green-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Chinese-teas-200x200.jpg?v=1773758458\" alt=\"Chinese black teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eChinese black teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/assam-loose-leaf-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Loose-leaf-assam-tea-200x200_e60e8789-f795-452c-b45a-6a07cbb07a41.jpg?v=1774539142\" alt=\"Assam teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eAssam teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/greysteas.co.uk\/collections\/loose-darjeeling-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Darjeeling-tea-200x200.jpg?v=1773758461\" alt=\"Darjeeling teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eDarjeeling teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/ceylon-loose-leaf-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Ceylon-teas-200x200.jpg?v=1773758462\" alt=\"Ceylon teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eCeylon teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/east-kenyan-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Kenyan-teas-200x200.jpg?v=1773758463\" alt=\"East African teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eEast African teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/loose-nepalese-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Nepal-tea-200x200.jpg?v=1773758464\" alt=\"Nepalese teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eNepalese teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/speciality-teas.myshopify.com\/collections\/nilgiri-tea\" class=\"black-coll-tea-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Darjeeling-teas-1-200x200.jpg?v=1773758465\" alt=\"Nilgiri teas\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eNilgiri teas\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n  .black-coll-tea-collection-grid {\n  display: grid;\n  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);\n  gap: 30px 20px;\n  background-color: #705a54;\n  padding: 40px 20px;\n  margin: 0 auto;\n    margin-top: 20px;\n}\n\n.black-coll-tea-item {\n  text-decoration: none;\n  text-align: center;\n  display: flex;\n  flex-direction: column;\n  align-items: center;\n}\n\n.black-coll-tea-item img {\n  width: 100%;\n  max-width: 200px;\n  height: auto;\n  display: block;\n  margin-bottom: 12px;\n}\n\n.black-coll-tea-item span {\n  color: #ffffff;\n  font-family: sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 500;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 768px) {\n  .black-coll-tea-collection-grid {\n    grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr);\n  }\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"assam-anandabagh-second-flush","title":"Assam Anandabagh Second Flush","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eAssam Second Flush: Anandabagh STFGFOP1.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eThis is a lovely, tippy Assam second flush with a most attractive, slightly liquorice note.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eIt is a malty, well-rounded, yet elegant tea having plenty of tip evident.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eFairly complex layers of flavors that puts on a show for any tea lover!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eThe flavor is somewhat bold but ‘sits on the tongue well’.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eIt only has a hint of sweet wood.

The flavour is as divine as the smell, if not more so. This tea was brewed with 100c water for 5mins in a teapot with removable leaf holder and strainer. There’s little astringency in this Assam which surprised me as most Assam I’ve had have had an astringent note to them but not this one. I’m one that does like the astringency but I do think the actual flavour of the tea makes that a non issue. Overall I’m extremely impressed by this tea and after drinking Assam for years this is by far the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this tea and say give it a shot, and it’s worth the price which i think is a fair one. Also, I think these caddy’s look excellent with the bright coloured label and a plain bushed steel caddy.\" \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/tea\/comments\/156m3pq\/greys_teas_assam_mangalam_sftgfop1_review\/?utm_source=share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web3x\u0026amp;utm_name=web3xcss\u0026amp;utm_term=1\u0026amp;utm_content=share_button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBlogger review\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003ch3\u003eThe benefits of loose leaf tea\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\u003cul\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eThis Assam Mangalam tea is a carefully sourced tea chosen for its distinctive, balanced flavour.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eLoose leaf tea enables the full flavour characteristics of the tea to infuse.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eAssam Mangalam tea is chosen for its high grade which imparts the flavour and aroma characteristics for which this tea is best known.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eA little patience is required when infusing large leaf grades but you will be rewarded with a superior, more balanced cup.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\u003ch3\u003eWhich size to choose\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\u003cul\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eThere are several packing options: 60grams, 125grams and 250grams - the standard being of 125 grams in a packet.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eYou can select packets or a tin caddy with hinged lid which can be selected from the drop-down options.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eOur silver-coloured packets are a triple laminate of paper, foil and cellophane, specifically designed for tea.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\u003ch3\u003eHow to look after this tea\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\u003cul\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eStore the tea with care: ensure it is stored air-tight, away from heat, light, moisture and strong aromas.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eOur standard best-before is one year.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\u003ch3\u003eDelivery options\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\u003cul\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eOur standard shipping is second class post unless you choose an alternative option.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eFree UK shipping is available for orders over £30 and free first class post can be chosen for orders over £50.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eAt the checkout you may choose to receive a free, full-colour, eight-page guide to our tea.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eFor more information about buying our loose leaf teas see our page \u003ca href=\"\/about-us\/buy-best-loose-leaf-tea-2\/\"\u003eHow to Buy the Best Loose Leaf Tea\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Speciality Teas","offers":[{"title":"125 gram caddy","offer_id":56422145163644,"sku":"1204T1","price":16.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"125 gram packet","offer_id":56422145196412,"sku":"1204P1","price":14.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 gram caddy","offer_id":56422145229180,"sku":"1204T2","price":30.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 gram packet","offer_id":56422145261948,"sku":"1204P2","price":27.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/6691\/9292\/files\/Black-Assam-Mangalam-3_775b5147-13e2-4f55-884f-1207e265f18b.jpg?v=1772290212"},{"product_id":"assam-organic-tea-jamguri-tgfop1","title":"Assam organic tea Jamguri TGFOP1","description":"\u003cul\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eAssam Jamguri organic tea TGFOP1: loose leaf Assam.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eHas a good malty richness with a certain cocoa aroma without excessive body.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eThe richness of this high-grade Assam makes it ideal at breakfast.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\t\u003cli\u003eLocated in the Golaghat District of Upper Assam.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eAssam organic tea Jamguri TGFOP1: produced in the Golaghat District of Assam.\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eAssam organic tea Jamguri TGFOP1 has a good malty richness with a certain cocoa aroma without excessive body.
