Laokhowa Organic Black Tea

Laokhowa loose-leaf black tea: bold, full-bodied, and bursting with flavour

Our Laokhowa black tea carries you straight to the heart of the valleys of India, halfway across the world. Calming yet powerful, much like the warm spice notes in every cup. We hand-selected the finest leaves from our grand cru collection to craft a truly distinctive blend. The result is a morning ritual that holds its own against any cup of coffee.

The benefits of Laokhowa black tea in your morning routine

A daily companion for both body and mind, our Laokhowa black tea brings real wellness benefits. Its antioxidant properties help support cardiovascular health and improve circulation. The catechins found in loose-leaf tea also help regulate blood pressure. And with every first sip at breakfast, that list only grows longer.

How to brew and enjoy Laokhowa black tea

How to prepare Laokhowa black tea

For a well-balanced cup, steep the leaves for 3 to 5 minutes in hot water. As they infuse, the aromas will gently fill the air around you. For a more classic style, add a splash of milk to soften the flavour, just as the British have always done.

How much Laokhowa black tea to use

For the full depth of flavour, use 13 grams of loose-leaf tea per litre of water or milk. This ratio lets every aroma develop fully from the very first sip, setting the tone for a cheerful, unhurried breakfast.

What is the ideal brewing temperature for Laokhowa black tea?

Brew the loose leaves in water at 100°C. The aromas will fill your cup with a bold, warming spice character.

When is the best time to enjoy Laokhowa black tea?

Much like Earl Grey or a classic English Breakfast, Laokhowa black tea is best enjoyed in the morning. The natural theine gives you an energising lift at breakfast, much as coffee does. For evenings, a loose-leaf or bagged herbal infusion is a gentler choice.

Why choose Laokhowa black tea in loose-leaf form

Laokhowa black tea is the result of a carefully balanced blend, drawing on quality origins such as Assam. Our loose-leaf teas are packaged in resealable zip bags or metal tins, both of which can be reused for your other teas, a small but meaningful step towards a more sustainable routine. Loose-leaf is also more economical per gram than bagged alternatives. For full ingredient details, refer to the back of the pack.
