About This Tea

Thompson's Tea has been blending and packing tea in Belfast since 1896 and is now a fourth generation family business. Their Scottish Blend has a personal story behind it - a member of the Thompson family fell in love with Scotland on regular visits, and it was the memory of those trips that inspired the creation of a blend specifically designed for Scotland's soft water, fed by its abundant lakes and reservoirs. Kenyan teas from the foothills of Mount Kenya partnered with North India's finest growth - an award-winning combination that produces a rich, satisfying character that holds up beautifully in soft water.

Bold, malty, and full-bodied with a golden colour and a clean, bright finish. The kind of all-day tea that works from the first morning cup through to the evening. Rich enough to take milk well, balanced enough to drink without.

If you enjoy Thompson's Scottish Blend, our Scotch and Abram's Scottish Breakfast is our take on that same bold Scottish character - FBOP grade, full-bodied, and built to start the day.

How to brew the perfect cup
  1. Use freshly boiled water, not left to cool.
  2. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on preferred strength.
  3. Add milk. It holds up beautifully.
  4. A longer steep brings out the full malty character.
How does it compare?

Scottish Blend Tea is the closest direct comparison - both are blends specifically designed for Scotland's soft water. Brodies Scottish Breakfast is the closest comparison from a dedicated Scottish tea company. Nambarrie shares the same Northern Irish heritage and a similar bold, Assam and Kenya foundation.
