Tugboat: Portsmouth Teas

A hardy, warming cup named for the sturdy red tugboats that work the Piscataqua River. This signature blend is as dependable as its namesake — a strong, malty black tea deepened with chocolate and warm spice, built for early mornings and hard-working days. The robust black tea base delivers a real, no-nonsense lift, while cacao and cinnamon add a comforting, chocolatey richness that keeps you going. Sip it strong and black, or with milk and a little sugar for a hearty mug. The flavor is malty, chocolatey, and warmly spiced. Blended in small batches at our Portsmouth NH apothecary, part of our Portsmouth Signature collection celebrating the working harbor. Steep one teaspoon of this loose leaf black tea for three to five minutes, pour, and get to work. A characterful Portsmouth keepsake or gift for the coffee-strong tea drinker on your list. Naturally sweet enough to enjoy on its own, it takes kindly to a spoon of local honey or a splash of oat milk if the mood strikes — your cup, your way.
