Ask Jiddo.

Every JIDDO blend starts with Ceylon tea. What makes it Arabic is the recipe: four generations of family know-how, with a custom blend for each flavour. Think of it as grandpa’s vintage record, sampled in a new song.

There is commercial tea and there is specialty tea, just like coffee. We make specialty tea: bold aromas, true flavours, and blends built to be tasted, not just steeped.

Five black teas (Lemon, Peach, Mint, Tangerine and Cinnamon) and two green teas (Ginger & Saffron, and Jasmine), plus Classic, Jiddo’s plain Ceylon house tea, in loose leaf and single serve. The Founders Collection brings all seven tins together.

None. Our teas have no added sugar, just the good stuff. Jiddo did have a soft spot for a sugar cube on the side, though. It’s all personal preference.

Yes. All JIDDO teas are 100% vegan.

Some blends use natural flavourings, the way a chef adds the right spice. They’re there to lift the tea leaves, not to steal the show.

Steep one bag in hot, not boiling, water for two to three minutes. Two minutes makes a light cup, five makes a strong one. Most blends are lovely over ice too.
