Estate black tea

Explore single-estate black teas shaped by the soil, altitude, climate and traditions of their individual tea-growing regions.

Estate teas are sourced from identified tea gardens or estates, allowing you to experience the distinctive character of each origin. Our collection includes teas from Darjeeling, Assam and Sri Lanka, with flavour profiles ranging from floral and delicate to rich, malty, brisk and full-bodied.

These teas are ideal for anyone who enjoys learning how origin and production influence the flavour in the cup.

What makes estate tea different?

Tea grown in a particular estate reflects its local conditions, including elevation, climate, soil and the timing of the harvest. The processing method and leaf grade also influence the aroma, body and finish of the finished tea.

As a result, two black teas from the same country can taste quite different. Estate teas provide an opportunity to compare these differences and discover the origins and styles you enjoy most.
