Waterloo Tea - Breakfast

Waterloo Breakfast is our premium take on a classic breakfast tea. Sourced from the Khongea Estate in Assam, on the south bank of the Brahmaputra River, it comes from a region celebrated for producing some of the world’s boldest and most distinctive black teas. Unlike many breakfast teas, Waterloo Breakfast is single origin and single harvest, ensuring a consistent cup with a clear sense of place.

This tea is processed into a broken leaf format, an unusual choice for leaves of this quality. The smaller particle size allows for a faster infusion and a stronger brew, while still retaining the malty depth and layered character that define Assam teas. The result is a breakfast tea with power and refinement in equal measure.

Harvested during the 2024 Second Flush, this clonal Assam includes a generous proportion of golden tips - the young buds of the tea plant. Their presence reflects careful plucking and skilled production, marking this as a premium lot.

Waterloo Breakfast adapts to your taste. It is full-bodied and complex enough to enjoy black, yet bold enough to carry milk with ease. Its depth also lends itself to masala chai, making it as versatile as it is distinctive. For those seeking more from their morning tea, Waterloo Breakfast delivers strength, character, and a clear connection to origin. Available as loose leaf or in high-quality tea bags.
