Low Country - Bourbon Sugar Black Tea - 15 cup bag

Done! You will be notified when this item is back in stock.

Tastes Like: burnt sugar, buckwheat, chicory, bourbon
Feels Like: the forward familiarity of the south

This tea has the ostentatious warmth of a Southern drawl. It's got robust body and character to match. In the first sip, the chewiness of burnt sugar mingles with the dark, rich flavor of buttery buckwheat hotcakes and finally, a latent chicory note. A drop of milk adds a whisper of bourbon. This is a fantastic morning tea to rival an English breakfast. Its potent charm ambles all the livelong day. Recommended for coffee lovers and whisky drinkers.

    You can tell the difference when you run out!

    The taste of this tea is like a warm blanket wrapped around you in the morning! Comfort at its best. What a disappointment when you realize you used the last without your next delivery close. Time to up the amount on auto ship! 😃
