When approaching making a blend for our London Borough tea shop, we wanted to bring the industrial revolution, old bricks & smoky haze of Borough to life. With this smoky & spicy loose leaf Chinese Pu-erh tea blend, we think we have done just that!
Each store has its own blend, designed to represent the people & the local area. Check out the other store blends here.

I love this tea, it's my favorite. Lovely and smokey and peppery.
I've seen other reviews note that it smells a bit like smoked fish - I don't get that myself but my husband can smell that a bit.

Smoky but a bit Fishy
This has a nice smokiness but sometimes has a fishy smell. Not as good as other smoky teas. Also the idea of it being the flavour of Borough market is off-putting as I associate that with the dirt and grime of traditional inner London markets.
