Collection: Darvilles of Windsor - Loose Leaf Tea and Caddies

Darvilles has been selling tea in Windsor, in the shadow of the castle, since 1860, and it is the tin people bring home after a day trip there. Proper loose leaf, blended for a strong British cup.

In stock: Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Royalty Assam and Darjeeling in 100g loose leaf caddies, and the same four blends in boxes of 25 tea bags.

Use the caddies for a pot at the weekend and the bags on a work morning. The Royalty Assam is the one to pick if you take your tea strong. Imported from Windsor, warehoused in Massachusetts, posted anywhere in America.

Buy Darvilles of Windsor Tea Online in the USA
Darvilles is a small Windsor tea merchant rather than a supermarket brand, and that is the appeal. The loose leaf tins and presentation caddies are bought by people who want the ceremony of a proper pot, and by anyone shopping for a British gift that is not another box of bags.

Loose Leaf, Caddies and Brewing a Pot
Loose leaf needs an infuser or a pot with a strainer, and it rewards the extra step with a rounder cup. Warm the pot, one spoon per person and one for the pot, brew three to four minutes. The caddies keep the leaf airtight and look the part on a kitchen shelf.

FAQ

Q1: How do you brew loose leaf tea?
One teaspoon per cup in a warmed pot or infuser, boiling water, brew three to four minutes, then strain.

Q2: Is loose leaf better than tea bags?
The leaf is larger and less broken, which many drinkers prefer. Bags are quicker; loose leaf is the traditional method.

Q3: How should loose tea be stored?
In an airtight caddy away from light, heat and strong smells.
