Irish Breakfast is our full-bodied black tea, blended from one hundred percent Assam grown in the Brahmaputra Valley of northeast India. It pours a deep, medium-dark brown with a malty backbone and a subtle note of roast malt, the kind of cup that wakes you up and holds its own.

We built this one in the older Irish style, with small broken leaves rather than CTC pellets, so it stays smooth even when you brew it strong. It drinks well on its own, and it takes milk and sugar as gracefully as any tea we make.

 Details: The Harneys have been out of Ireland for some time, so our Irish Breakfast is an older version. This tea recalls a time when the teas came from Assam, not Africa, and were small, broken leaves, not CTC pellets. So this is a simple tea that can handle milk and sugar well.
 Dry Leaves: Dark brown leaves.
 Liquor: A medium-dark brown liquor.
 Aroma: This has some of the malty aromas found in other Assams. However, since it is a smaller tea and there are no tips, the aromas seem to be muted.
 Flavors: This is usually served with milk and sugar, so the flavors harmonize well with them. There are subtle notes of roast malt.
 Caffeine Level: Caffeinated
 Body: Full-bodied. This has a very good body. It is usually served with milk. Of course, the Irish would have it no other way.
 Brewing Time: 4 to 5 minutes
 Brewing Temp: 212º
Black tea: A strong blend of Assam teas from the Bramaputra area. It isa blend of both broken Assam and CTC. This tea blend favor more Theaflavins for the bold flavor that can be tamed by addig milk and sugar.
