Fruit teas , also known as fruit infusions, offer a delightful alternative to traditional teas made from the Camellia sinensis plant. Unlike regular teas, fruit teas are crafted using a blend of dried fruits, fruit essences, flower petals, herbs, spices, and natural ingredients. This combination creates a uniquely flavorful tea that can be enjoyed both warm and cold.

Russian Caravan Tea is a unique blend of black tea with a smoky flavour that is steeped in history. The tea is made by blending oolong, keemun, and lapsang souchong teas, with some varieties also including Assam tea.

    Russian Caravan tea is a highly sought-after black tea, renowned for its unique smoky flavour. This popular tea has a rich history that dates back to the 1600s, when it was first discovered along the Sino-Russian trade route. Russian Caravan tea is a blend of black tea leaves that have been infused with smoke, resulting in a dark and malty tea with notes of tobacco, chocolate, firewood, charcoal, and smoke.

During these rests, the tea leaves absorbed the smoky flavour, and when the tea arrived in Russia, tea drinkers took notice of its new smoky character and really enjoyed it. This resulted in the official creation and demand for Russian Caravan tea. Interestingly, around the same time Russian Caravan t...
