The ‘espresso’ of tea, this robust blend of rich Assams, Ceylons and other premium black teas is an excellent morning cup.
This tea is a wonderful, full bodied, wake me up, kind of tea. The taste is brisk with a smooth, rounded, malty taste. Irish breakfast is a mixture of several Assam teas and is best, I think, served straight up, piping hot. It’s best consumed in the morning unless caffeine doesn’t bother you. A great way to start the day!
Flavors: Malt
I drink a lot of Irish Breakfast tea. My great-grandmother used to serve it to me hot, milky, and sweet. She drank hers with a cream Irish whiskey. This version of Irish Breakfast is okay. It has the strong, slightly bitter, bold taste, but not enough of the smoothness of other Irish Breakfasts. Works quite fine if you drink it hot, milky, and sweet, but alone, it’s just an okay tea.
This is a nice, full bodied tea with enough flavor to support milk and sugar, at a very reasonable price. While not intricate, the flavor is typical of other breakfast teas, with a hint of sweetness that makes it appealing.
My usual morning brews consist of various darjeeling’s, but I decided to go with a more caffeinated blend. I do not use sweeteners in black tea. This brew does not come out bitter, thus not requiring milk or sugar. I found it to be very rounded. I have had it for weeks, but I can not tell that it is more caffeinated. Very good taste & worth a try.
I bought this tea for one reason: To wake up for morning classes. I can assure you that there is sufficient amounts of caffeine for the task. The base Assam tea was better than expected, and it tasted great after adding a bit of cream and sugar.\
It also helps that I didn’t miss my 7:30 class, and even managed to stay awake through the whole lecture.
I’ve tried a lot of teas, but this has been my favorite for years. Hard to mess up a cup, even with longer steep times and water not at the perfect temperature. Rich and smooth, it hardly needs anything besides a mug, but it’s even more fantastic with a little sugar and half & half. I always have to have this on hand. For me, it’s got the perfect amount of caffeine- enough to keep me focused while I work tech support till 1am and get me going the next morning, but not so much that I become jittery or ill (I am rather sensitive to stimulants in general). The flavor is slighlty malty and naturally sweet, and is great hot or iced. Hard to find in stores, you’ll save yourself a lot of time just ordering this online.
