Description

Fortify yourself with East Frisian, our popular full-bodied black tea blend of Darjeeling, Ceylon, and Assam. It's named after East Frisia, Germany's cold, wet, and dreary North Sea coast—the ideal spot to drink hot tea, and the East Frisians do! They consume more black tea than anyone else in the world. They do drink it with cream and crystallized sugar.

Ingredients

Black tea.

 Details: East Frisia in Germany consumes large quantities of tea, so they are large customers for tea merchants. This blend was passed onto us by Bernd Wulf; thus, its nickname is "Bernd's Blend."
 Dry Leaves: The lighter leaves of Darjeeling and Ceylon bring some color to the darker Assam leaves.
 Liquor: The liquor is dark brown with a reddish hue.
 Aroma: The aroma has hints of malt and citrus.
 Flavors: The tea flavors are a canvas for the cream and crystallized rock sugar the East Frisians add.
 Caffeine Level: Caffeinated
 Body: Full-bodied, one of the most full-bodied teas that we offer. The East Frisians like to thicken it by adding cream and, of course, crystallized sugar.
 Brewing Time: 4 to 5 minutes
 Brewing Temp: 212º
