Brewing instructions
Brewed with water at 90 Degrees, let the flower unfurl do not remove flower. This is can be steeped a number of times.

Russian Caravan Tea Bags are what you get when you combine the finest, full-bodied Black Tea with state-of-the-art plastic-free Tea bags. They are convenience in a cup, all the while promoting everything Russians know and love when it comes to their favourite brew.
We pack each pocket of goodness fresh to order. In doing so, we can guarantee not only quality but also consistency.
Russian Caravan Tea Taste
Most types of Russian Caravan Tea are the product of a Tea Blend. As a rule of thumb, they are distinctly aromatic and bold with sweet, malty, smoky flavours.
This is particularly true when producers add Lapsang Souchong into the mix to enhance it. However, such is the extraordinary character of our Russian Caravan Tea Bags that we didn’t think it necessary; it tastes brilliant without Lapsang.
What is Russian Caravan Tea?
Where does Russian Caravan Tea originate from? Contrary to popular belief, the leaves themselves are not the product of Russia - but China.
Its name, then, derives from the fact that it is most popular in Russia, a country with a flourishing Tea culture. Recent statistics suggest that an estimated 80% of its inhabitants drink Tea - including, of course, this one.
Does Russian Caravan Tea Have Caffeine?
Caffeine is a stimulating chemical compound that, in reality, needs little introduction. People have long relied on its ability to get us out of bed in the morning and, ultimately, power us through the day.
If you’re wondering, “Does Russian Caravan Tea have caffeine?”, the answer is yes. It contains around 45-mg per 8-oz cup, which should, in theory, be more than enough to provide an energy boost.
These are Plastic Free Tea Bags
The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company has become acutely aware of our impact on the planet. We want to make a difference where possible, which is why we’ve removed harmful microplastics from our Tea Bags.
Our Russian Caravan Tea Bags - as is the case with all of our Tea Bag products - are now made from wood pulp and vegetable starch. They’re compostable and, indeed, better for mother nature.
How to Brew Russian Caravan Tea Bags
1, Position the Tea Bag in your cup.
2, Begin brewing by pouring in freshly boiled water.
3, Allow it to steep for 3-5 minutes.
How to Serve: Do you put milk in Russian Caravan Tea? It’s certainly an option. You could consider adding honey, lemon or sugar, too, but we believe it tastes best black.
Russian Caravan Tea Bags Benefits
Would you believe that your favourite cuppa could have a small yet significant influence on your health and wellbeing? The reason, for the most, is its wealth in vitamins, minerals and other antioxidants, which, together, combat free radicals in the body.
This results in reduced risks in developing a multitude of chronic conditions, including type-2 diabetes and heart disease.

Although these "Russian Caravan" teabags are of the British interpretation type (non-smokey) they do make a very satisfying cup of tea.Review by Tony O'keefe
