Our Loose Leaf Teas

We have grouped our tea list into a commonly used categorization depending on the level of oxidation (also known as fermentation). Black Tea is made from leaves that have been fully oxidized – this changes the colour of leaves from green to brown and also produces a deeply rich and robust flavour.

We also have a list of Flavoured Black Teas, which we have carefully selected, after extensive tastings, to enhance the dishes on our food menu. Oolong is a semi-fermented tea where the fermentation process is stopped before the leaves begin to change colour. Green Tea is steamed, baked or pan-fried to prevent oxidation and therefore the leaves remain green. White Tea, like Green Tea, is also ‘unprocessed’, but is harvested before the leaves are fully developed; the name derives from the fine silvery-white hairs on the unopened buds of the tea plant. These buds and baby leaves are carefully gathered and left to dry in the sun.

Finally, we have a small selection of artisanal blooming teas. These teas are made by carefully wrapping dried flowers inside an outer layer of hand-sewn green tea leaves. The teas are served in a large wine glass and as they slowly absorb water, the flower blossoms, filling the glass with colour, perfume and beauty.

For those not fond of caffeinated drinks, we have a selection of Caffeine-Free Teas, which includes herbal infusions, fruit tisanes and Rooibos ‘teas’..

Black Teas

English Breakfast £2.65

This is made up of a blend of teas from Assam (for its warm malty body) and Sri Lanka (for its golden quality and briskness). Traditionally taken with milk, this is the perfect tea for breakfast. Firstly, the flavour and the high caffeine content helps kick-start the day; secondly, tea helps emulsify fat, so it is ideal after or with a meal. But, of course, it is great for any time of the day
Earl Grey Blue Lady £2.85

A slight variation on the classic Earl Grey, this has a more pronounced bergamot flavour, and small blue flowers have been added to the blend. Oil of bergamot is extracted from the peel of the bergamot orange, a small pear-shaped sour orange that is cultivated today mostly in southern Italy. Earl Grey pairs well with cheese sandwiches, or savouries and lemon cake
Darjeeling £2.85

Tea from the Darjeeling area of north-east India is grown in the foothills of the Himalayas; the combination of steep terrain, well-drained soil, extreme cold in winter and intense heat in summer, good rainfall and clean mountain air produce tea of an excellent ‘muscatel grape’ aroma that is often referred to as the ‘champagne’ of Indian teas. Darjeeling tea goes well with cream cakes and scones
Assam £2.85

Assam is a vast and beautiful area of rolling hills and dense forest in Northern India. It is a relatively low-lying area of tea production, but its high rainfall (up to 30 cm a day in the rainy season) and extreme humidity provides excellent tea growing conditions. Stronger and fuller-bodied in flavour than Darjeeling teas, Assam is favoured by those looking for a strong tea – and goes well with breads, pastries and preserves
Ceylon £2.85

Although Sri Lanka stopped being known as Ceylon some time ago, Ceylon is the official and authorised trademark for Sri Lankan tea. This Orange Pekoe grade is strong, golden and smooth. This tea is perfect for those looking for the first step on the road to exploring loose leaf teas and goes well with food
Keemun £2.85

This well-known Chinese black tea is characterised by a plummy sweetness, tinged with a subtle touch of smokiness. It has a malty, non-astringent lightness of taste
Kenya £2.85

This tea from Kenya in East Africa is perfect for a mid-morning cuppa - it produces a beautiful golden liquor, and has a malty but sweet flavour
Lapsang Souchong £2.85

Lapsang Souchong teas are a speciality of Fujian province in China. The leaves are withered over cypress or pine wood fires then pan-fried and rolled. They are then oxidised in wooden barrels and hung in baskets over smoking pinewood fires to dry. The result is intensely black leaves which make a dark red liquor and a distinctive smoky flavour. It is the tea equivalent to a smoky West Coast malt whisky! Lapsang is a good tea to accompany salmon or chicken sandwiches
Pu Erh Leaf £2.85

Puerh tea has been exclusive to China (Yunnan Province) for centuries, but it is becoming more popular throughout the world because of its health benefits. Pu Erh teas have a mature, earthy character and are said to be excellent for the digestion, as well as helping to reduce cholesterol and aiding weight loss
Decaffeinated Black Tea £2.85

If you fancy a ‘normal’ cup of tea without the caffeine this is the one for you - just as delicious, strong and smooth, that won’t keep you awake at night

Flavoured Black Teas

Rose Congou £2.85

Congou teas all consist of carefully made, unbroken black leaf. This tea is blended with dried pink rose petals to give a smooth, mellow aroma gently flavoured with sweet roses
Mango Tea with Flowers £2.85

This fruity tea is a blend of black China tea, flower petals and natural flavourings. Served with or without milk it makes an ideal afternoon drink
Ginger Tea with Pieces of Ginger Root £2.85

Pieces of ginger root have been blended with black China tea to provide a gentle but interesting blend with a ginger ‘tingle'
Vanilla Tea £2.85

This black tea with vanilla is a very creamy and luxurious cup of tea – it has a delicious natural sweetness and a great vanilla taste
Banana Tea £2.85

A Chinese black tea with added banana bits makes for a sweet, soothing drink

Oolong Teas

Formosa Oolong Poppy £2.85

Oolong tea originated in Taiwan (Formosa) and is known as a semi-fermented tea. The leaves are crushed after picking to allow fermentation to start, then withered in the sun or by pan firing to stop the process of oxidation. The result is a tea with a sweet aromatic flavour that is very high in polyphenols (and low in caffeine) which give the tea its antioxidant properties. This is a nice gentle tea for the afternoon

Green Teas

Gunpowder £2.85

In the 18th and 19th centuries, tea clippers used to bring the UK’s supply of tea back from the East. Tea was bulky but very light – and this Chinese tea was favoured by exporters because the leaves are tightly rolled before drying, which gives it a high density. The sailors thought the tea in pellet form looked like lead shot, and the nickname ‘gunpowder’ became commonplace. This is a strong, robust green tea with a lasting after-taste. It should be used sparingly as the leaves expand profusely - have a look
Young Hyson £2.85

Also known as ‘Lucky Dragon’, the leaves for this Chinese tea are picked in early spring, giving a golden liquor with a light, refreshing taste
Jasmine with Flowers £2.85

This green tea is flavoured with jasmine flowers to give a pale amber liquor that is light and fragrant. This is a lovely tea to have in the afternoon, as it has calming and soothing properties
Green Cinnamon and Plum £2.85

This is a warming and delicious green tea combining a spicy tang from the cinnamon with a touch of plummy sweetness
Sencha Genmai Cha £2.85

This is a unique Japanese tea combining a brisk Sencha leaf with toasted brown rice to give an almost savoury ‘umami’ flavour
Japanese Cherry Sencha £2.85

An invigorating blend of Sencha leaves and cherry gives a light, fruity, floral flavour

White Teas

Pai-mu-tan (tea of life) £2.85

From the Fujian province of China, this is tea in its most natural form – the leaves are simply withered and dried in the sun. This tea gets its name from the fine silvery-white hairs on the unopened buds of the tea plant. The clear, pale infusion has a velvet smooth, sweet and mild flavour with a hint of nuttiness. It is considered to be very beneficial to health and is very cleansing after a meal

Herbal Infusions

Camomile £2.85

Camomile has been used for centuries in Europe and Asia as a natural way to aid relaxation and reduce stress. It is often served with honey as a sweetener
Peppermint £2.85

This is a light and refreshing drink that has long been used to help with digestion
Lemon Grass £2.85

This aromatic infusion is subtle and refreshing

Fruit Tisanes

Passionfruit and Orange £2.85

This is a lovely fruity infusion that is naturally sweet and invigorating
Apple and Lemon £2.85

This is a fruity tisane that requires a lengthy infusion time (10 minutes is perfect) and produces a deep red liquor that will set your taste buds tingling

Rooibos Teas

Rooibos £2.85

‘Rooibos’ means ‘Red Bush’ in Afrikaans, and is a plant (not a tea plant) grown in South Africa that is oxidised using the same process as black tea to produce a beautiful deep coloured infusion with a rich, nutty, earthy flavour
Rooibos Blood Orange £2.85

A Rooibos infusion with added pieces of blood orange which add a zing of citrus to the earthy notes of the Rooibos - a match made in heaven

Artisanal Blooming Teas

Blooming Tea £3.95

During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) Chinese culture became fascinated by nature. One offshoot of this interest was the development of Artisan teas (also known as ‘blooming’ or ‘treasure’ teas). They are made by carefully wrapping dried flowers inside an outer layer of hand-sewn green tea leaves. The teas are served in a large wine glass; as they slowly absorb water, the flower blossoms, filling the glass with colour, perfume and beauty – this is tea as a work of art!
