A classic black breakfast tea that brews to a satisfying colour. Good for the old-school tea purist. I’d say it’s similar to an Irish Breakfast. Good quality, not bitter or astringent. But…there’s a million others like it.
To be fair, Lupicia says this is best enjoyed with lots of milk, which I don’t drink. They also say it’s “mellow,” whereas I would call it “robust.” It’s a fine blend but I wouldn’t go out of my way to purchase it. Get yourself some Twinings Irish Breakfast and save yourself the trouble.
