50g Hidden Islands Blend – Loose Tea
The Hidden Islands Blend takes a robust black tea base and layers in tropical fruit and island botanicals for a cup that’s genuinely different from a standard black tea. Bright mango and passionfruit notes lead the way, balanced by a subtle warmth from ginger or cardamom underneath.
It’s a versatile, medium-caffeine tea that works just as well as a comforting hot cup as it does chilled over ice on a warm day.
