Low Country - Bourbon Sugar Black Tea - 28 cup tin

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.

Low country

One of my all time favorites. I had my chocolate bone broth to it and it is heavenly.

Not a fan

Just not a fan. I’m more of a purist in my taste for black tea

Brings me back

I spent many summers in the low country and one sip of this beauty brings me right back to crab fishing on the creek, legs dangling, scanning for gators.
