Low Country - Bourbon Black Tea

Bourbon Black Tea with Smoky, Sweet Dessert-Like Notes

Low Country is a Southern-style breakfast tea: robust black tea, a little lapsang souchong smoke and malted barley, finished with caramel, cream and cocoa notes that read as bourbon sugar. It is thick, warm and a touch sweet without any sugar, which is why it is one of our best sellers with coffee drinkers and whisky fans. A splash of milk brings out the bourbon notes.

Tastes like: burnt sugar, buckwheat hotcakes, chicory, bourbon. Strong enough for morning, smooth enough for all day.

How to brew: 1 teaspoon per 8 oz cup, water just off the boil (205–212°F), steep 3–4 minutes. Takes milk well. For iced tea, brew double strength and pour over ice.

Good to know: caffeinated (breakfast-strength), vegan, sugar-free, non-GMO. Contains gluten from malted barley. Ingredients: black tea, Taiwanese lapsang souchong black tea, malted barley, natural caramel, cream and cocoa flavors.
