Taylors of Harrogate English Breakfast, 20 Teabags

I was recommended a tea I hadn't heard of.So I tried it!It's really good and strong. Like An Assam. But it's blended with some Kenyan black teas too.It's called "Scottish Breakfast".It packs about:9.5% naturally occurring polyphenols& 25-30mg naturally occurring L-Theanine& 42-50mg naturally occurring caffeine.per 6 ounces.--> For reference .. lol .. I drink 12oz mugs of most other black or green teas or non-tea herbal/flower/fruit/spice tisanes. -->Water too, 12oz at a time!At first I thought: oh great another "breakfast" tea blend. But this one is definitely different.Not like English or Irish "breakfast" blends. And a far cry from Australian or American breakfast blends...It's malty and strong!!! Extremely full-bodied and earthy with a slight bitter edge. I can tell it's caffeine-heavy. 😁 . The aroma is sweet and pleasant.This specifc Scottish blend I tested is not stated as organic. Many of thier products, however, are indeed organic as is the Taylor's Tribute Scottish.I'm impressed with the Taylor's business principles. They're commited to Rainforest Alliance and the Ethical Tea Partnership, Fair Trade, Sustainable Growing, pricing transparency, rewards for quality, supply chain resiliency, etc. They hold Carbon Neutral Certification and are still independently owned by the same family since 1886. (*Not been around longer than Twinings but... not many are).I can see that they fully participated in a 4-pillar Sedex SMETA audit. Which I know first-hand and up-close those audits are comprehensive and rigorously conducted 😥.I drink lots of tea. This won't replace my go-to (lifesavers) of daily pu'erh, hibiscus, rooibos because I add other junk into those like ginger, turmeric, lemon, etc.BUT... I'll definitely be adding it to the rotation with the many others I live/love to drink and I'm looking forward to *soaking it strong* for some cold tea on ice.Good stuff!

I am a daily drinker of tea and have many varieties I keep on hand.I have had Chai from many different purveyors and they are similar: a strong, full bodied tea with spices.Taylors of Harrogate is one of my favorite brands, so I bought their Chai to give it a try.My favorite! The tea is strong as it should be, but the spicing sets it apart. The taste of Cinnamon and Cardamom is obvious, but well balanced. The licorice taste( is happily) less pronounced.This Chai is the best.

Started buying this tea after having a co worker share it with me. It has a great mellow flavor, not too strong. Everyone that visits our home and drinks it asks what brand it is and says they love it. This is now the only breakfast tea I buy now.

Smells good and tastes good. Easy to use string and tab. Brews well as a hot tea.

Delicious tea that looks like tea instead tan water! Very pleased and buy it a lot!

I enjoy the teas they make.

This is by far my favorite morning tea. Is it worth the money? My opinion- yes. I love the smoothness and the flavor of this particular tea from Taylor's. It would seem that this is a rather bland review... until you have tried the tea with just a smidge of heavy cream for a touch of creaminess, then you might agree with me or might not...Try it and see. Just leave me some, please.

Good tea with a slight Bergamot flavour.
