Product Overview
Birchall English Breakfast 4-Pint Catering Tea Bags are supplied in a box of 82. Each bag is designed to brew approximately four pints of tea, making them well suited to teapots, catering urns and café environments where tea is made in larger quantities and served by the cup.
The blend is Birchall’s signature English Breakfast — a strong, full-flavoured black tea crafted and closely guarded by the fifth generation of the Birchall Graham family, with over 150 years of history dating back to 1872. Sourced exclusively from estates across East Africa, from Rwanda through to the Great Rift Valley in Kenya, the combination of high altitude, equatorial rainfall and rich volcanic soil gives this tea its exceptional brightness, golden colour and strong, refreshing flavour.
Fair Trade certified, this is a premium catering tea bag for cafés, canteens, restaurants, hospitality venues and any setting where tea is brewed in bulk and served by the pot or cup.

FAQs
How many pints does each tea bag make?
Each bag is a 4-pint catering tea bag, designed to brew approximately four pints of tea. They are intended for use in teapots, catering urns and other bulk brewing equipment rather than individual cups.
How are these different from Birchall one-cup tea bags?
The tea blend is the same Birchall English Breakfast. The difference is the bag size — 4-pint bags are designed for teapots and urns where tea is brewed in larger quantities and served by the cup. One-cup bags are better suited to individual serving environments such as offices and self-serve stations.
