ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION TEA
Share a cup of history.
This robust, invigorating black tea blend is a re-creation of the tea enjoyed by the British Antarctic Expedition in the quest to be the first to reach the South Pole in 1911-1912. Captain Scott requested a strong blend of black tea be created for the expedition, which was intended to fortify the team during the journey, and ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION TEA reproduces this lively, historic combination.
The expedition’s staple daily ration of tea per man was 0.7 ounces (20 g), and provided a much-needed way to uplift and comfort the spirits in the frozen Antarctic.
ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION TEA is an exclusive, limited edition blend that allows you to truly step back in time, whenever you sip a cup of this warming brew. It’s delightful as a breakfast tea, or an all-day reviver – anytime you need a pick-me-up!
