Product details

Product Overview

Birchall English Breakfast String and Tag Tea Bags are supplied in a box of 100. Each tea bag comes with a string and paper tag attached, making it easy to lift from the cup without a spoon — a cleaner, tidier format well suited to guest-facing and self-serve environments.

The blend is Birchall’s signature English Breakfast — a strong, full-flavoured black tea sourced exclusively from estates across East Africa, from Rwanda through to the Great Rift Valley in Kenya. Crafted and closely guarded by the fifth generation of the Birchall Graham family, this blend gains its exceptional brightness, golden colour and refreshing character from the high altitude, equatorial rainfall and rich volcanic soil of the region.

The tea is Fair Trade certified, and Birchall is a brand with over 150 years of history dating back to 1872. A premium string and tag option for hotels, meeting rooms, cafés, offices and catering environments where presentation and ease of use matter.

  • Hotels and guest houses — hospitality trays and room service
  • Meeting rooms, boardrooms and conference venues
  • Offices and visitor refreshment areas
  • Cafés and coffee shops serving tea directly to customers
  • Catered events, training days and exhibitions
  • Self-serve drink stations where teaspoons may not always be available
  • Anywhere a premium, neater tea bag format is preferred

FAQs

What is a string and tag tea bag?
A string and tag tea bag has a small paper tag attached by a string. The tag sits outside the cup while the tea brews, making the bag easy to lift out without needing a spoon. They are tidier and more service-ready than standard loose tea bags.

How are these different from standard Birchall catering tea bags?
The tea blend is the same Birchall English Breakfast. The difference is the format — string and tag bags are easier to serve, easier to remove and look neater in guest-facing settings such as hotel rooms, meeting rooms and café counters.

Are these suitable for hotels and hospitality trays?
Yes. String and tag tea bags are a popular choice for hotel hospitality trays, guest rooms and meeting room refreshment setups where a tidy, easy-to-use format is preferred.

Is Birchall tea Fair Trade?
Yes. These Birchall English Breakfast string and tag tea bags are Fair Trade certified, sourced from estates across East Africa where the brand has long-standing relationships with tea-growing communities.

Can I buy Birchall string and tag tea bags in bulk?
Yes. This box of 100 is available here at Vending Superstore, supplied direct to hotels, offices, caterers, hospitality venues and trade customers across the UK.
