Tastes Like: buttered toast, brown bread, almond
Feels Like: morning in the library
The Library was previously known as Leatherbound. Same tea, new name!
Picture the dark wooden walls of a library lined with rows of books, like the iconic Long Room of Trinity College in Dublin. There is a seductive atmosphere that is both austere and comforting. The bready aroma of this tea is complemented by the unique nuttiness of caraway. This high grade black assam tea has a velvety mouthfeel and rich flavor. Hints of cocoa and sweet almond aromas enliven the mix, like the occasional contemporary novel whose glossy cover pops against the worn literary classics. A drop of milk tips the flavor towards a smooth creamy stout. Like sinking into a stately club chair to ponder the pages between your hands, this tea invites reflection. This makes a rich breakfast tea, and a great afternoon tea with shortbread or cherry scones.

As Seen On
This tea will make you crave a breakfast pastry, it is meant to be paired. Drinking it is like waking up to a chilly fall day and realizing you're early and get to stay in bed for another hour or so. Love this tea!
I have a large variety of black afternoon tea but I find myself reaching for this one over and over for a warm cuppa this time of year. Not my first choice for a latte but a spoonful of maple syrup and a splash of milk make lovely additions, though none is needed. I would be careful of the steeping time if I were you though and pull it right at 5 minutes, even a little bit longer ( like an " I'm upstairs and hear the timer go off downstairs" and you get more leather than you may like.
A great way to start a day, or a excellent addition to any brunch.
I was hesitant to try The Library because the ingredients didn’t sound like a blend that I would like. However, after reading all of the great reviews, I decided to give it a try. I’m so glad that I did!! The name fits it perfectly, and it’s now one of my favorites.
WOWWW, this black tea is the BEST. I don't always want a sweet cup of tea, sometimes I want something that feels rich and almost savory. This tea hits the mark! Will be buying this one again and again.
