From Tazo

Can’t find your invite for high tea with the Queen? (It must’ve gotten lost in the mail.) Luckily, our take on traditional breakfast-style black tea is even bolder and more robust, with a modern twist of Darjeeling front and center—no RSVP required.

- - —

A breakfast-style black tea of malty boldness and bright flavor, invigorating any time of day.

The sun peeks over the horizon through the clouds, a star streaks undetected across the sky and the world begins anew. This bold and flavorful blend of black teas will send you down the day’s path wondering where it will take you and if it’s possible to bring along a friend.

Decent for a bagged black tea. Strong flavor without bitterness.

I like to use two tea bags and then add an equal amount of steamed milk and a spoonful of honey.

This tea is good when I cannot make up my mind on the flavor I want. Nothing special about it though. I am interested in trying it with milk or sweetener. I have never added these to any tea and find it hard to believe it tastes good. Will have to give it a try.

Steeping for three minutes left it a little bitter. Will have to try again will a little less steeping time.

I keep trying to give this tea the benefit of the doubt, but it turns out horribly bitter every time. I have tried fully boiling water, water cooled to about 190, even to 180, varied steeping time, but it still is extremely bitter.

Not memorable. But it’s one of the few black teas they server at starbucks.

I definitely agree that this one goes well with milk. It’s good and rich and the milk softens it a bit, so it’s smoother and still an eye awakening experience. Good for paper writing times.

I’ve had many cups of Awake when I used to open the store (I worked at Starbucks for a few years). Not bad at all!
