The Blend
Leave your map and shovel in the shed and enjoy the West Country’s greatest treasure – our own Smugglers’ Gold – a delicious mixture of Assam, Kenyan and Ceylon tea leaves.
The Taste
Smugglers' Gold is blended using the very best of the best Assam and Kenya tea leaves. Ceylon tea is also added to the blend – a tea leaf that is aromatic and full of flavour. This combination makes for a very premium tea, bright and very tasty.
The Benefit
Black tea contains polyphenols, a type of antioxidant. Caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine are also found in black tea, which is said can improve alertness and focus – even more than coffee!
The Moment
Enjoy this delightful tea in the afternoon, making the gap between lunch and dinner that bit easier. Make the moment a bit more special with a slice of cake if you wish!
The Creation
Using traditional methods of blending and tasting, this tea has been carefully crafted by the Miles team, using Miles experTeas!
Based on the edge of Exmoor and on Somerset’s coastline, we take inspiration from our beautiful surroundings to create a cuppa that embodies a little escape, evoking memories of a holiday in the West Country, with each sip. Our attention to detail and experience ensures a consistent, flavourful tea that will see you constantly topping up your mug.
We are founding members of the Ethical Tea Partnership (ETP). The ETP is a not-for-profit organisation, which convenes tea companies, developing agencies, governmental and non-governmental organisations to improve the lives of communities within the tea sector. Each purchase directly helps to provide better living and working conditions for those working in the tea trade.
