Edinburgh Scottish Breakfast Tea from Edinburgh Tea and Coffee Company

gmathis drank Edinburgh Scottish Breakfast Tea by Edinburgh Tea and Coffee Company

I’ve previously noted how light this is for a morning tea, but I will amend my comments after steeping a quart of this all day in the fridge. It stoutens (Yeah, stoutens. I made it up, so there)considerably with a slow, cold steep. Bit of apple-peel sharpness to it now. Good stuff.

What a Bonnie tea! Stoutens shall be forevermore a proper word!

As long as it describes our tea and not our waistlines.

Bio

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
