Our Lemon black loose leaf tea is a bright, refreshing blend of smooth Chinese black tea and real dried lemon peel. Clean, zesty and beautifully balanced, it lifts the natural warmth of black tea with fragrant citrus oils from the peel, creating an easy everyday cup that is just as rewarding served hot as it is poured over ice. Lemon Black Loose Leaf Tea with Real Dried Lemon Peel This is a simple blend with lasting appeal. Chinese black tea provides a smooth, gently malty base, while strips of dried lemon peel add a clean citrus brightness that feels fresh and uplifting from the very first sip. Because the lemon comes from real dried peel, the flavour is rounded and aromatic rather than sharply acidic. It brings zest, fragrance and a natural lift without overwhelming the tea beneath it. A Clean and Refreshing Citrus Black Tea In the cup, this lemon black loose leaf tea brews to a clear warm amber liquor with a bright citrus aroma. The black tea gives structure and depth, while the lemon peel adds a lively finish that keeps the cup crisp and refreshing. It is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys flavoured black tea but prefers something cleaner and less sweet than fruitier blends. Real Lemon Peel for Natural Citrus Character Dried lemon peel contributes a fuller, more concentrated citrus note than a simple squeeze of fresh lemon. The natural oils in the rind bring fragrance and zesty depth, pairing beautifully with the smooth warmth of the black tea. The result is a tea that feels polished yet uncomplicated — bright, balanced and easy to return to every day.

How to Brew Lemon Black Loose Leaf Tea Use freshly boiled water at 100°C and add one heaped teaspoon per cup. Steep for 3 to 4 minutes. Choose the shorter end for a lighter, brighter cup, or brew a little longer for extra black tea body. This tea is best served without milk, which can soften the lemon character.
