About This Tea

Williamson Tea is one of the only tea companies in the world that grows, processes, and sells its own tea - a family business with farms in Kenya where every leaf is hand plucked and pesticide free. Their English Breakfast is grown entirely on the high altitude slopes of Kapchorua, one of Kenya's most celebrated tea growing estates, picked in the early morning sunshine when the leaves are at their most flavourful. Naturally grown, no pesticides, complete transparency from bush to cup. Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance certified. Biodegradable teabags.

Bright, brisk, and full-bodied with a clean, awakening character. The high altitude growing conditions of Kapchorua slow the growth of the leaves, concentrating their flavour and producing a naturally more complex cup than lower altitude teas. Strong enough to hold up to milk while remaining bright and lively. A genuinely distinctive English Breakfast from a farm, not a blending house.

If you enjoy Williamson English Breakfast, our Scotch and Abram's English Breakfast is our take on that same bright, full-bodied everyday character - Assam and Ceylon blended for a satisfying classic cup.

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 if you like. It holds up well.
  4. Worth trying without milk first - the Kapchorua character comes through cleanest.
How does it compare?

Birchall Great Rift is the closest comparison in terms of single estate Kenyan provenance and award-winning quality. Lifeboat Tea also comes from Williamson's own Kapchorua estate - a direct companion from the same farm. Twinings English Breakfast is the closest mainstream comparison if you want a multi-origin blended alternative.
