TC BROKEN ORANGE PEKOE TEA TIN
Decades of tea craftsmanship and technological innovation come together in this malty blend that’s unique to The Tea Centre! Our TC Broken Orange Pekoe tea tin (TC BOP) holds broken black tea leaves rolled into balls that release bold flavour upon infusion. Brimming with caffeine, TC BOP is a great choice for former coffee drinkers looking to make the switch. Most enjoyable first thing in the morning with a splash of milk.
Brewing up a warming red hue, this is a specialist tea that is much adored for its quality and taste. Specifically, we source the leaves from the high mountain plantations of Vietnam before processing the leaves in Germany via the CTC (crush-tear-curl) method. A common misconception is that broken leaves are a lower-quality version of orange pekoe leaves. We couldn’t disagree more! In fact, we love both grades for different reasons, with BOP teas making for full-bodied cuppas that are easy to brew quickly. For this reason, BOP leaves make for great breakfast teas.
Moreover, the rolled form of this tea also makes for an extra sensory experience upon infusion. Specifically, this tea becomes highly aromatic as the leaves unfurl in hot water. Prefer to sip an Orange Pekoe (OP) tea? We recommend our TC orange pekoe and its decaffeinated version if you’re caffeine-sensitive. You can also purchase this tea by weight here.
