Advance Australia tea

twinings

Foreign Affairs Minister and now esteemed tea blender The Hon Kevin Rudd MP has launched the new Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea.

Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea was born from a Twinings blending competition that saw the Minister named as the winning blender after a close competition with other highly regardedAustralians (including renowned broadcaster Alan Jones, TV icon Kerri-Anne Kennerley, seven-time world surfing champ Layne Beachley and country music star John Williamson).

The Minister's chosen charity, RSPCA Australia, will receive 10c from every pack of Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea sold during 2012.

Australians all let us rejoice, for we now have our own tea!  Joining the ranks of other famous Twinings blends of English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, New Zealand Breakfast, Russian Caravan and even Prince of Wales. 

The other finalists included radio legend Alan Jones, television icon Kerri-Anne Kennerley, seven-time world surfing champ Layne Beachley and country music star John Williamson.

Mr Rudd was elated to hear the news. "I'm looking forward to seeing my winning blend on supermarket shelves from Australia Day 2012. The win is a win for Australia's animals - with 10 cents from every tin going to the RSPCA. I've sampled tea across the globe but nothing quite meets the pleasure of sitting down on the verandah on a fine Brissie afternoon and having a refreshing Australian cuppa."

The Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea is described as being rich, satisfying and robust, the perfect pick me up. It's well rounded, rich and extra strength flavour is perfect for those looking for a brisk, lively and invigorating tea.

In creating his unique Twinings Australian Afternoon tea, Kevin blended the slightly smoky Russian Caravan with the full bodied Irish Breakfast and then added the light Ceylon Orange Pekoe.  This blend works particularly well with milk.

Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea will be available in teabags (10 pack & 100 pack) and loose leaf (125g pack).
