Newby Heritage Black Tea & Thyme Loose Leaf Tea, 100 gm Carton

In ancient Greece, aromatic herb thyme was thought to be a source of courage and was often used in incense. This prime-season black tea owes its sweet, earthy taste to the addition of spring-plucked mountain thyme, complementing the richness of the tea in a captivating malty blend.

Tasting Notes

Bright-chestnut in colour, with a sweet, earthy taste, malty aroma and smooth finish.
