Scotch and Abram's Peach Apricot is a flavored black tea built around two of the most naturally complementary stone fruits - real peach and apricot pieces alongside papaya for tropical depth, finished with calendula, marigold, and sunflower petals that make this one of the most visually striking loose leaf teas in the range. Full-bodied black tea forms the foundation, keeping the cup grounded while the fruit does the talking. Full-bodied and smooth with sweet, juicy peach and apricot notes throughout. The peach leads, the apricot adds a slightly richer, honeyed depth, and the papaya gives the whole blend a warmth that stops it feeling too sharp. Works beautifully hot or iced - particularly good over ice in summer. A splash of milk softens the fruit character and adds a creaminess that works well with the stone fruit notes. How to brew the perfect cup Use freshly boiled water, not left to cool. Use one heaped teaspoon per cup. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on preferred strength. Try it black first - the peach and apricot come through brightest without milk. How does it compare? Caffeine free version: Scotch and Abram's Peach Paradise More tart: Scotch and Abram's Raspberry Bolder berry: Scotch and Abram's Blackcurrant Peach Paradise is the caffeine free version - same peach character without the black tea base. Raspberry is the natural step up in tartness if you want something with more of a sharp, fruity edge. Blackcurrant is the bolder, more intense option from the same range.
