About This Tea

Thompson's Tea has been blending and packing tea in Belfast since 1896 and is now a fourth generation family business. Punjana is their flagship blend - Northern Ireland's favourite tea - and this is Punjana in loose leaf format. Only the finest Assam and Kenyan teas are selected: Assam from the finest gardens for a beautifully rounded, malty character, Kenyan teas from the foothills of Mount Kenya picked at the peak of the growing season. Awarded 3 Gold Stars at the Great Taste Awards and recognised by the Guild of Fine Foods for 12 consecutive years.

Full-bodied, deeply malty, and exceptionally well-balanced. The loose leaf format lets the leaves fully unfurl for a richer, more nuanced cup than the teabag version delivers - the same award-winning Punjana character, with more of it in every cup. Best with milk, though it holds up well without.

If you enjoy Punjana Loose, our Scotch and Abram's Irish Breakfast is our take on that same bold, full-bodied Northern Irish character - built to the same standard of everyday excellence.

How to brew the perfect cup
  1. Use freshly boiled water, not left to cool.
  2. Use one heaped teaspoon per cup.
  3. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on preferred strength.
  4. Add milk. This is built for it.
How does it compare?

Thompson's Original Blend is the same Punjana recipe in teabag format - the convenient everyday option from the same blend. Brodies Assam is the closest loose leaf comparison if you want a single origin Assam rather than a blend. Nambarrie is the closest Northern Irish alternative in terms of bold, Assam-forward character.
