A bold and energising black tea, Palace Breakfast Tea is a perfect start to the day with its full-bodied flavour and smooth, balanced profile. Crafted from premium Assam and Ceylon leaves, this signature blend is a luxurious choice for any morning routine.

Our award-winning Palace Breakfast Tea is a full-bodied, aromatic blend crafted to energise and awaken the senses. As the signature Breakfast Tea of Tea Palace, this exclusive blend is created from just two luxury, single-origin teas, carefully sourced from some of the oldest and most prestigious tea gardens in Assam and Ceylon.

The leaves are hand-selected from our trusted partners in India and Sri Lanka, chosen for their unique qualities that enhance the richness and complexity of this breakfast blend. The Assam contributes a deep, malty base with warm, spicy undertones and a full-bodied character, while the Ceylon introduces a fresh, lively brightness with a refined aromatic profile. Together, these carefully balanced teas create a smooth, satisfying infusion that is both invigorating and full of depth.

Designed to be enjoyed on its own or with milk, Palace Breakfast delivers a rich, awakening cup that provides the perfect start to the day. Its robust yet smooth flavour lingers pleasantly, making it a timeless choice for those who appreciate a classic, expertly crafted breakfast blend

Very enjoyable

Palace Breakfast is one of my go to Breakfast teas. I like the thicker cut. The Tea Palace was “off the boil for some years “ but recently is back on track with quicker delivery and good follow up service. I’m glad I came back!

I love the Palace Breakfast. It is full of taste of good quality. And it smells rich. One of my favorite teas together with Palace Earl Grey.

About Palace Breakfast

It isn't possible to pin down an exact date for when breakfast teas were popularised in the UK, but we can reasonably assume that it would have occurred in the 18th century. 

By this time, taking a strong "builders" style tea in the late afternoon along with the evening meal (colloquial known as "tea time" in the UK) was well established among the British peasantry and tea was already well-known for its energising effect.

As usual, the fashion for taking tea at breakfast seems to have filtered down from the upper-classes. Some nobles began to take afternoon black teas with breakfast as an invigorating first cup of the day.

True breakfast tea blends almost certainly began in Scotland where a bolder, stronger cup was demanded during breakfast and this lead to the creation of Assam-heavy black tea blends with a proper kick!

Naming of breakfast teas as "English Breakfast" is thought to have two possible origins; one is that Queen Victoria enjoyed the blend whilst visiting Scotland, brought the tea back with her to London and renamed it to "English Breakfast". The other origin is that it was simply the name given in America to breakfast teas from the UK and the name caught on from there! 

One thing we can say for certain is that by the 20th century breakfast teas had become so popular that it sits alongside builders as the most popular of teas in Britain; with one, the other or both gracing virtually every kitchen in the country!

Even with substantial competition from coffee to become the morning drink of choice for many - breakfast teas are still going strong and a perennial favourite!
