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. Unlike the summery strawberry and peach, this one is at its best hot in cold weather, where the dark berry and the malt make a genuinely warming, full-flavoured cup; it still chills well too. Of the five it is the most robust and the one that comes closest to standing in for a regular 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, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection alongside the rest of the Hyson Ceylon range as an honest dark-berry black.
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.

Side by side
How does it compare

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.
