Tea has become an inherent part of British culture – it’s up there with tennis, a Sunday roast and saying sorry. Its origins, though, are in ancient China, where it was discovered many centuries ago before becoming big in India and Sri Lanka. The beginnings of English Breakfast, on the other hand, are thought to lie in Scotland, where Queen Victoria first enjoyed a blend during a stay at Balmoral. Nowadays there are endless brands to choose from, but which are the greatest? Here we bring you the very best tea brands. Whether you’re all about a classic builder’s tea, prefer a nutritious green or love everything from oolong to jasmine, you can guarantee these names know their stuff.
