Made completely in-house.

Tea smuggling passed into local West Country folklore arrayed in a cloak of romance and respectability. Tea was drunk by nearly everyone in the 1770's and when King Charles II introduced unfair heavy taxes, many people from all walks of life turned to smuggling to receive their supply of tea. The rugged coastline around the South West has a notorious history of smuggling with its inaccessible coastline, remote beaches and craggy cliffs and many colourful stories abound of dareing smuggling runs. D J Miles & Co Ltd also have a long traditions in the tea and coffee business, although they are not linked with smuggling and all the tea is imported through the approved channels. A selection of the finest quality teas are blended to produce our 'Smugglers' tea.

It is hard to find a Ceylon tea that has a good flavour, so when we find one we reserve it for our Smugglers blend for teabags.We add Assam and Kenya teas to give a blend that is strong and bright, and maintains a fine Ceylon character.

40 Two Cup teabags packed in an overwrapped box.

Nett Weight 125g

Put one tea bag per person into a teapot, or one teabag into a mug. Fill the pot with boiling water and allow it to brew for 3 to 5 minutes before pouring. This tea can be drunk with milk or lemon, or on it’s own.

5 stars Nice surprise! Written by Beryl
This tea came in a hamper bought for us as a Christmas pressy. Didn't have great expectations of the tea, but what a lovely surprise we had. Best tea we've tasted for years. I take mine black and there's not bitterness at all. Lovely!!
