Grey Dragon Tea comes from the central Java highlands of Indonesia, from the tea state of Dewata, which translated into the local Indonesian language, means “ home of the Gods & Goddesses”, an apt name for this beautiful tea. Grey Dragon Tea is grown at attitudes of around 1000-1500m above sea level, grown in rolling hills of the tea estate, with breathtaking views & scenery It is all h&-picked, & naturally sun-dried, giving it this great leaf integrity. It is a needle-like tea leaf, & the mix of the black & white colours give this tea a fantastic flavour & style. The aroma you will get from the tea comes from the Assamic input, which is truly mellowing against the other thicker & stronger flavours within the tea. The result is a delicate floral aroma, simply delightful. The taste matches the aroma, with a light & delicate floral note. It is not as strong as a China Oolong Tea, but stronger that a classic White Tea. Grey Dragon Tea is most refreshing taken without milk or sugar, but drink it however you prefer. ...
Ever tasted a Twinings Gunpowder Green Tea?

When you infuse this healthy green tea with hot water, the round tight green tea explodes into life as the water rehydrates the tea leaves. This tea comes in a dark green iconic Twinings Tea Tin. ...

The contrasting flavours of two fine Indian tea varieties make this the perfect complement to an afternoon relaxing in the summer sun. I chose a second flush Darjeeling, famed for its mellowed roundness & the Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe grade of Assam delivers a full bodied, malty flavour. With a sip of this unique, satisfying blend I find myself filled with memories of teas enjoyed in sparking company on sunlit afternoons. Rich honeyed Assam & delicate muscatel Darjeeling. This exquisite Garden Party blend is a delicious tea, full bodied enough to be tasty & satisfying yet has an unexpected, refreshing lightness of touch. The Twinings team has invested time combing India’s finest tea gardens to hand select exactly the right grade of teas. They are blended for you into the most superb examples of this style. It can be enjoyed straight, with milk or with a slice of lemon. ...
