Couldn't load pickup availability
Tasmanian Pinot Black Tea is a blended black tea inspired by Tasmania's Pinot Noir wine culture. It pairs Tasmanian black tea with dried local Pinot grapes and Chinese black tea, creating a grape-forward cup that wine lovers and tea drinkers both seem to enjoy. The grape character comes from actual dried fruit rather than artificial flavouring, so it tastes natural and layered rather than sweet or synthetic.
What you'll taste
Dry grape notes upfront, with a smooth, mild tea base underneath. There's a bit of body and depth from the Chinese black tea in the blend — think of it as the structure that holds the fruit together, if you want to keep the wine comparison going. At our Tea Bar, I've watched visitors take their first sip and say something like "oh, I can taste the grape."
For people who think they don't like tea
This is the tea I reach for when someone at our Salamanca Tea Bar tells me they're "not really a tea person." The wine connection gives them something familiar, and from there the conversation usually opens up. If you're buying for a wine lover who hasn't found their tea yet, this is a good starting point.
Brewing guide
Use 2 teaspoons of tea per 500ml teapot with 95°C water. Steep for 4 minutes and enjoy 1–2 infusions. The first steep is where the grape character is strongest. The second steep is gentler and brings out more of the tea base. Try it without milk first to get the full fruit profile.
Storage
No artificial flavours, colours, or preservatives. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place away from light and moisture.

Ingredients: Tasmanian black tea, dried Pinot grapes, Chinese black tea.

Tasted this tea at the market and enjoyed the taste so much that I bought some to take back to South Australia. Now I am home I have been having regular cups. I highly recommend this for anyone who likes a black tea and red wine.
I will be ordering some for the team at Absolute Safety Solutions to enjoy in the office.
Tried a sample at Salamanca, and ever since then my partner and I really love this tea. A really calming blend, a good way to start the day or to wind down (or both in my case)
Just tried this unique blend from A Moment Of Tea, and I'm in love! The dry grape notes perfectly complement the mild black tea, creating a cozy and delicate sip. Tasmanian magic in a cup! 🍇🍵✨

Let customers speak for us
from 134 reviewsI love smokiness in most things so when I saw this Lapsang Souchong Original Smoked I grabbed a sample to try and I was blown away.
From the moment you open the packet the aroma of the smokiness hits front and centre.
With smallish leaves I eagerly brewed up. I was presented with a beautiful full amber liquid and the smoke hitting my nose was welcoming.
The only way I can describe this tea is it brings back memories of camping down by the creek on our farm burning pine cones. It’s like a warm hug being able to taste the smell. It reminds me of the smokiness in your clothes once you walk away from that fire.
Full bodied and lovely mouth feel.
I want to write this because I am genuinely impressed with the service I received.
I had an issue with one of the teas I purchased and I emailed A Moment of Tea about it. That morning I received a email back from Zachary profusely apologising about the mishap. In the email Zachary thanked me for the email because they actually found an issue in the OS supplier and worked towards a solution with them that day.
Zachary took the time to explain to me the process as to how this tea was produced and why the issue occurred and what’s happening to fix the issue.
To say the least I was blown away and again would like to thank Zachary for the communication through email. I highly highly recommend anyone with a Chinese Tea love to purchase from here as the teas I have tried so far are top notch. Tea reviews coming.
Jasmine Dragon Pearls / Buddhas Tears - Very subtle Jasmine comes through.
Lapsang Souchong Original Smoked - It’s like getting a hug from the camp fire on your camping trip. Immediately bought back memories of camping and having that smokey smell through your clothes (my favourite atm)
Shou Mei White Tea - very refreshing and bright white tea
So delicious, and a nice touch
I am very impressed with both the service and products. This is my first time I have ordered anything, and will definitely be returning. Many thanks, and congratulations.
I'm very happy with the samples sizes in the Sampler pack, as it enables me to share cups with friends and family to find out what their particular preferences are. Many thanks.
Purchased these at a market on holidays in Tassie several years ago, having been ordering ever since! My whole family love the dragon pearls, beautiful green tea and pretty to watch open up.
Mandarin Pu-erh Post-fermented Tea
Very satisfying flask.
Aged Mandarine Peel 2016
The tea I'm most drawn to everytime now.
Great whisk for my morning matcha, easy clean and storage.
One oif the best Oolongs I have tasted
If you love tea or even like it this is the place to experience tea and all it conveys in a beautiful, serene setting. While in Tasdie in January 2026 I had the pleasure of being able to visit my favourite tea shop. The experience did not disappoint. The service is exceptional and the tea. Well you will have to taste it yo believe it. A must if you want something to remember tassie.
My first time using matcha at home. Full of flavour and beautiful in colour. A sensory delight.
Great for whisking matcha. I am a novice but am excited to be learning and using high quality tea supplies from a moment of tea.
