what kind of black teas are in bewley's dublin morning tea ?
the box seems to just say "african teas"
Probably because none of them are a tried and true recipe along the lines of 10% from farm A, 30% from farm B, etc. Consumers expect commercial blends to have a consistent taste, so their always using teas from different sources to maintain a that consistency. Tea just doesn't taste the same from harvest to harvest. You've got to mix it up a bit.
A little ambiguity is probably a very healthy thing in this case.

No need to miss it! Someone posted a link to the whole thing available for download or watching right here.
It seems like this Modern Marvels special comes up a bunch, so I'm downloading it now.
