A perfectly straightforward cup of black tea, with a distant floral sparkle. Pair with shortbread or “Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art” by John Keats.
An everyday caffeinated tea, perfectly balanced between tannins and florals
A flexible blend, steep the recommended time for a balanced cup, or slightly longer if you need a jolt to start your day
Sourced from farms that focus on wildlife preservation.
The Bright Star Breakfast tea is your everyday tea with a delicate twist. A rich blend of three different black teas from around the globe, it delivers the solid base you expect from a breakfast tea, with just a hint of floral elegance that makes you pause, consider, and take another sip. Try it out.
This blend is a globetrotting mix of teas from Colombia, India, and Nepal. Grown at different elevations and in different soils, each of these teas bring their own unique element to the blend, resulting in a delicious brew.
Not only do these farms produce incredible teas, they also partner with local wildlife preservation initiatives in their area to make their farms a haven for endangered species. This includes making wildlife passages for elephants, reforestation efforts for bird populations, and fair pay for workers with opportunities for education to discourage poaching.
Tuberculosis is the deadliest infectious disease of all time. In honor of John Keats and the billion people who’ve died of TB in the last two centuries, 100% of the profits from Keats & Co will fund tuberculosis testing and treatment through a new program with Partners in Health.

#mugtober
Today’s prompt is themed around World Teacher Day. At first I thought this would be hard to find a tea and mug for, but then I was just flooded with a ton of different ideas. The mug I chose is one with a really retro/80s sort of inspired geometric design that feels like it would be perfectly at home on the walls of an elementary school classroom.
For tea, I decided I wanted something from Keats & Co since the two Youtubers behind the brand (Hank and John Green) are also the creators responsible for Crash Course and a bunch of other educational content that is often used as teaching aids at all different educational levels. I probably could have picked any of their blends, but I liked Bright Star because the name reminded me of gold stars handed out when a student excels.
I had milk on hand this time, so today I’m drinking it with milk and to my surprise I think I actually liked it better without? It’s still a very delicious breakfast blend with that hallmark full bodied intensity and brisk, malty flavour. I’m just not getting the graham cracker notes that I picked up without the milk and I’m missing that just a tad.
