History of Strong Breakfast Tea

The term “Breakfast Tea” became popular in the 19th century, particularly in England, as the British started to enjoy a stronger, heartier tea to complement their morning meal.

Historically, breakfast teas were often blends of robust black teas, chosen for their strong, malty flavors that could stand up to milk and sugar, which were commonly added at breakfast.

The name “English Breakfast Tea” is often credited to a Scottish tea merchant named John Walsh, who, in the 19th century, created a blend specifically designed to be robust enough to pair with a substantial breakfast.

The blend was typically made with black tea leaves from regions like Assam, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), and Kenya. These teas are known for their strength, full-bodied flavour.

The popularity of Breakfast Tea spread throughout the British Empire and beyond, becoming a symbol of a hearty start to the day.
