Numi Organic Breakfast Blend Tea — 100 Black Tea Bags, High-Caffeine, Plastic-Free Biodegradable

Numi’s Breakfast Blend brings three distinct full-leaf black teas together to create a morning cup that’s both lively and well-rounded. Sourced from Fair Trade gardens in India and Sri Lanka and certified organic, this blend is crafted to brew strongly without bitterness, pair well with milk, and chill into a satisfying iced tea. The tea bags are made from manila hemp fiber and sealed without plastic, and outer wrappers are plant-based and commercially compostable.

How does this blend taste and behave with milk or over ice?

The blend balances Assam’s malty body, Ceylon’s bright lift, and Darjeeling’s delicate notes so no single tea dominates. That structure lets it hold up when brewed with milk and sugar but still stays vibrant when iced.

• Full-leaf composition reduces sharp, tannic bitterness.
• Steeps into a bold cup that remains flavorful with milk.
• Quickly produces a clean, robust iced tea when cooled with ice.

What makes the packaging environmentally responsible?

Numi uses manila hemp (Abacá) fiber tea bags sealed with a crimp-and-knot process rather than plastic heat-seals, avoiding polypropylene contact with the tea. The bags are BPI Certified Biodegradable and independently verified free of added microplastics, while the outer wrapper is plant-based and commercially compostable.

• Tea bags made from Abacá (manila hemp) fiber—no plastic heat-seals.
• BPI Certified Biodegradable and third-party microplastic verification.
• Outer wrappers from FSC-certified paper and non-GMO sugarcane.

Where do the teas come from and how are farmers supported?

The blend is built from teas grown in Fair Trade gardens across India and Sri Lanka, with growers participating in democratic decisions about how community funds are allocated. Numi’s Assam is sourced from Tonganagaon, a large organic Fair Trade estate where community projects like clean water and sanitation have been implemented.

• Assam, Ceylon, and Darjeeling full leaves combined for balance.
• Fair Trade Certified—farmers vote on community fund use.
• Long-term projects (e.g., clean water access) supported by the brand.

How should I brew Numi Breakfast Blend for best results?

For a hot cup, steep one bag for 4–5 minutes in near-boiling water to extract the blend’s structure without excess bitterness. For iced tea, use two bags and steep stronger, then chill over ice for a crisp, full-flavored cold beverage.

• Hot: steep 1 bag for 4–5 minutes in hot water.
• Iced: steep 2 bags, cool, and pour over ice for a bold cold brew.
• Holds up well to milk, sweeteners, or lemon depending on preference.

Who is this for: Numi Organic Breakfast Blend is ideal for morning tea drinkers and coffee switchers who want a naturally high-caffeine, full-flavored black tea that stands up to milk and also makes a refreshing iced option. It’s a good fit for shoppers who prioritize organic sourcing, Fair Trade relationships, and plastic-free packaging, and for anyone seeking a structured, non-bitter cup from whole-leaf bagged tea.
