What does Second Breakfast taste like?
A robust, full-bodied English Breakfast tea flavor that is both rich and invigorating.
Why 30-45 servings?
Each 2oz handcrafted pouch of Second Breakfast contains around 45 teaspoons of tea. That's 45 servings if you do the world standard 1 teaspoon in an 8oz teacup.
Most people in the U.S. use larger mugs made for coffee, though. For those, we recommend 1.5 teaspoons. You still get at least 30 strong servings in your favorite mug :)

Benefits of High Altitude Grown Tea
- Exceptional Flavor & Aroma:
Our high-altitude teas are grown in cooler climates, allowing the tea plants to develop slowly and concentrate their flavor. The result? An extraordinarily rich, complex taste that you won't find in an ordinary big box store tea.
- Exclusivity & Rarity:
With limited production due to difficult terrain and growing conditions, high-altitude teas are harder to come by. This exclusivity adds to the desirability of every cup you steep.
- Hand-Harvested
Most of our high-altitude tea is carefully hand-plucked. Plucking luxury tea is a highly specialized skill that produces superior teas and provides good jobs to locals in the region. Reliance on hand plucking means that thousands of jobs are not replaced by machine. Japan is an exception. There, luxury teas are harvested by machine.
- Antioxidant Benefits:
Scientific studies suggest that these teas contain higher levels of beneficial antioxidants compared to lower-altitude varieties.
- Sustainably Grown, Ethically Sourced:
We’re committed to protecting the delicate mountain ecosystems where our tea is grown. Sustainable farming practices ensure we respect the environment and support the local communities that make our exceptional teas possible. Hand-plucking requires very little fossil fuel, and releases virtually no CO2.
