Russian Caravan - Smoke Kissed Blended Black Tea

Named for the legendary overland tea caravans that once travelled from China to Russia: a journey of months through cold mountain passes and windswept plains, Russian Caravan carries the spirit of that adventure in every cup.

This blend combines Chinese and Assam black teas, each contributing its own character to create a tea with a lightly smoky, complex flavour that sets it apart from everyday black tea blends. Chinese tea brings smoothness and a slightly earthy depth; Assam adds body and a malty richness. Together, they produce a medium-full-bodied cup with a subtle smokiness that is intriguing rather than overpowering, a tea that rewards curiosity and suits any time of day, with or without milk.

Why You'll Love It

Intriguing smokiness: The gentle, lightly smoky character is subtle and sophisticated, complex without being overpowering
Blending at its finest: Chinese and Assam teas work together to create depth and character that neither tea achieves alone
Any time of day: Versatile enough for morning energy, afternoon comfort, or evening relaxation, with or without milk
A tea with a story: Steeped in history and the romance of the ancient Silk Road tea trade

Origins & Character

Russian Caravan brews to a rich, reddish-amber liquor with an aromatic, slightly smoky scent. The flavour blends the smooth, slightly earthy character of Chinese black tea with the malty fullness of Assam, finishing with a gentle smokiness that lingers pleasantly. It is full-flavoured and satisfying, a tea with presence and personality.

Functional & Wellness Benefits

The Chinese tea component comes from China's classic black tea-producing regions, selected for its smooth, earthy character. The Assam component adds body and depth. The blend is designed to balance these qualities and deliver the distinctive lightly smoky character that defines Russian Caravan as an enduring classic.

Russian Caravan is a tea with history, character, and a flavour all its own. Order today with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 3pm.
