Gillards of Bath’s Timeless Hard Water Blend

A true testament to tradition and craftsmanship, Gillard’s exclusive Bath City Blend is our original hand-blended tea recipe, meticulously crafted since 1888. This exclusive blend was borne out of a need to counteract the harshness of Bath’s famously hard water, a challenge that Henry Gillard, our visionary founder, successfully overcame.

For over 135 years, this discerning blend of the finest black and green teas has remained a closely guarded secret, passed down through generations of tea connoisseurs. The unique combination of teas is carefully selected and expertly blended to produce a rich, full-bodied cup with a delicate balance of flavours.

The Bath City Blend is not only a historical treasure, but a practical choice for those living in hardwater areas. Its robust character stands up to the minerals in the water, delivering a consistently satisfying brew. While it may not be the ideal choice for softer water regions, its time-honoured formula continues to delight tea lovers in London, the Southeast of England, and beyond.

Indulge in a piece of history with every sip of Bath City Blend. Experience the rich heritage and exquisite taste that has captivated tea enthusiasts for generations.
