Russian Caravan
A centuries old tea blend that was so sought after in Russia that special caravans were commissioned to personally deliver it to the Czar. A beguiling blend of black teas that brews into a pleasing cup of tea. Russian Caravan has earned its reputation as one of the most distinguished black tea blends, characterized by its slightly smoky aroma and layered, complex taste. Traditionally made with a combination of Chinese black teas, it embodies the spirit of tea’s journey across continents and centuries, bringing history and flavor together in one cup.
Flavor Experience
Russian Caravan brews into a medium to dark amber liquor with a distinctive smoky fragrance reminiscent of campfires and distant hearths. The first sip reveals a smooth, full-bodied black tea with subtle notes of malt and earth. The smokiness is balanced rather than overpowering, complemented by hints of sweetness and a slightly dry finish that lingers pleasantly. The blend is both bold and approachable, making it versatile enough to enjoy as a morning tea, a companion to meals, or a reflective evening drink. Its flavor captures both strength and refinement, appealing to those who appreciate depth and character in their cup.
Health Benefits
Russian Caravan offers more than tradition and taste; it also provides natural wellness benefits. Like other black teas, it is rich in antioxidants such as theaflavins and catechins, which help neutralize free radicals and support overall health. Its moderate caffeine content provides a balanced lift in energy and mental focus without the intensity of coffee. Drinking black tea regularly may also support heart health, improve digestion, and promote hydration. For tea drinkers who want both a unique flavor and functional wellness benefits, Russian Caravan is a rewarding choice.
