LCurator note · Hyson
The deepest and darkest of the Hyson fruit blacks: rich, tart blackcurrant over a strong Ceylon base, essentially a grown-up Ribena with proper tea backbone instead of sugar. Where the strawberry and peach feel like summer teas, this one shines hot in cold weather, the dark berry and malt making a properly warming, full flavoured cup, though it ices well too. Of the five it is the sturdiest, and the one that could most easily stand in for your usual strong brew. A reliable, satisfying everyday flavoured black.

About this tea

Hyson Blackcurrant Infused Black Tea, in brief.

Hyson Blackcurrant Infused Black Tea is a single-origin Ceylon black tea with a deep blackcurrant note, chosen alongside the rest of the Hyson Ceylon range for anyone who likes a dark-berry black without fuss.

The blend is pure Ceylon black tea with natural blackcurrant flavour, single-estate Sri Lankan with the Lion Logo certification on every box. Brew with just-off-boil water, three to four minutes, black for the fruit-tea cup.

Texture is a brisk Ceylon cup with a dark berry lift from the blackcurrant, the real tea backbone keeping it from tasting like flavoured water. Drinks well black for the fruit cup, or with a splash of milk for a richer afternoon brew. Standard Ceylon caffeine.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Hyson Blackcurrant Infused Black Tea is a Ceylon black with blackcurrant, for anyone who finds a plain breakfast blend a bit dull. Plenty of fruit teas end up thin or artificial tasting; this one keeps a strong brew by pairing high altitude Ceylon leaf with natural fruit oils. Hyson put it in plain tea bags, so it is an easy, everyday cup to make at home. Dark, rich and properly fruity, this blackcurrant tea pairs nicely with a traditional afternoon tea or as a refreshing iced summer reset. Brewed for a slow afternoon at home or a busy working day, the blackcurrant comes out tart and lively, carrying the Hyson standard of quality into 2026.

How does it compare

vs Twinings BlackcurrantWhile Twinings is a multi origin blend Hyson uses a 100 percent pure Ceylon base. It is the superior choice for those who want an authentic bold tea taste alongside the fruit.
vs Ahmad Tea BlackcurrantHyson offers a more specialized thirty two bag count which is ideal for those seeking premium quality in a compact export format.
vs Standard Supermarket BrandsHyson uses high altitude leaves and natural liquid spray flavourings providing a much cleaner profile without the chemical aftertaste found in budget bags.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature100°C, a proper boil, so the fruit gives up all its colour and tartness.
MeasureOne bag for each 200ml of water, poured straight from the boil.
Steep5 minutes, covered; a lid over the mug keeps the blackcurrant oils in the tea instead of letting the steam carry them off.
ServiceLeave the blackcurrant unsweetened, or soften its tartness with a teaspoon of honey. A slice of fresh fruit, or a few blackcurrants, finishes the cup nicely.
Iced versionFor a double strength base, steep 2 bags in just 200ml and let it cool completely; serve it in a tall, ice filled glass, lengthened with cold sparkling water.
CaffeinePresent, as in any Ceylon black; we quote no milligram figure.
Best withDark chocolate, fresh berries, jam scones or Victoria sponge; on a hot day, pour it over ice instead.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

CaffeinePresent, as in any Ceylon black; we quote no milligram figure.
Ingredients and dietary suitabilityHyson may update the blend, so the blackcurrant box you receive has the allergy wording to follow.
CaffeinePresent, as in any Ceylon black; we quote no milligram figure.
AllergensNaturally derived flavours from the named fruits. If hibiscus disagrees with you, read the ingredient list on the box before you brew.
Nutrient NoteThe blackcurrant is what deepens the cup to a red brown, darker than plain Ceylon, and the finish stays clean.
Shelf LifeHyson print a best before date on the carton; blackcurrant tea kept beyond it is safe, just fainter in aroma. Keep the bags in an airtight tin, somewhere cool and dry and out of the sun.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
