For a fruity moment of bliss, apricot black tea is the perfect infusion
Do you love fruits that taste of sunshine? This apricot black tea is a delicious blend of apricot, peach and grape, much like our date, fig and lemon black tea. Built on an Assam black tea from India, these natural aromas come together in an infusion that evokes the warmth and sweetness of Tuscany. Every ingredient breathes nature and florals, while a gentle note of peach adds a sun-drenched finish that lingers on the palate. This is a tea made for sharing, perfect for a relaxed afternoon tea with friends or family. Steal a quiet moment from the day and savour the flavours of the sun.

This softly fragrant blend brings just the energy you need to start your day on the right note.
Brewing guide
How to brew apricot black tea
A steep of 3 to 5 minutes is all it takes for the different ingredients to fully express themselves. In just those few minutes, the natural character of the black tea and the warmth of apricot unfold beautifully in your cup.
How much apricot black tea to use
To bring out every nuance of this flavourful blend, use 12 to 15 grams per litre of water. This ensures every aroma has a chance to shine.
What is the ideal brewing temperature for apricot black tea?
We recommend using freshly boiled water at 100°C to get the most out of your black tea. At this temperature, the infusion opens up fully, revealing the depth of its floral and fruity notes.
When is the best time to drink apricot black tea?
Black tea can be enjoyed throughout the day. That said, it is best to avoid a cup close to bedtime, as black tea contains caffeine, which may interfere with your sleep.
Why choose loose-leaf apricot black tea
Loose-leaf tea consistently delivers a richer, more nuanced cup than tea bags. The tea leaves, flowers and every other ingredient that goes into this blend make it a truly considered product. Each element is natural and carefully selected. Store your loose-leaf tea in a caddy away from light and moisture to preserve its freshness. Kept in the right conditions, black tea will stay at its best for several months.
