Black Tea

At Fraser Tea, we hand-select black tea, paying special attention to the region and weather conditions that can influence its overall flavor. Fraser Tea has developed one-of-a-kind mocktail-inspired flavors - like Poolside Pina Colada or Royal Rum & Cola - based on high quality, organic black tea.

Black Tea is best known for its rich flavor and energizing health benefits and makes up 85 percent of the tea consumed in the Western Hemisphere. Fraser Tea crafted inventive varieties like Cream Earl Grey with organic bergamot; Fair Trade Certified Ceylon organic black tea, handpicked from a fair-trade farm in Sri-Lanka and an organic Masala Chai that is blended with the precise combination of spicy ginger, sweet cinnamon and aromatic cardamom.

Like all teas, Fraser Tea black teas are derived from the Camellia sinensis plant. Most consider it a shrub or small tree and many tea varieties are developed from this same plant. In particular, black tea is oxidized on a much higher level than white, green or oolong teas. This process alters its color and emboldens its flavor. Expect a more robust taste from a black tea compared to any other option. That's one reason it might as well be considered the coffee of the tea world.

Caffeine is released more rapidly and over a shorter period of time when consuming black teas. Its energizing benefits are often found in breakfast styles, like our Signature Morning Blend.

Black tea is grown in many regions of the globe. Let your taste buds travel without ever putting down your favorite tea cup. You'll taste the influence.
