From Twinings

English Breakfast is our most popular tea. To create this well-balanced blend, we select some of the finest teas, each with its own unique characteristics.

Tea from Kenya and Malawi, provides the briskness and coppery-red colour while Assam gives full-body and flavour. The robustness from these regions is complemented by softer teas from other regions.

The combination yields a complex, full-bodied, lively cup of tea that is perfect any time of day.

Notes: Smooth, Flavorful, Robust

Ingredients: Fine black tea expertly selected from Kenya, Indonesia, Assam, Malawi and China

Brewing Instructions: Add freshly boiled water. Steep 4 minutes or to desired strength. Do not microwave.

Good strong black tea suited to adding milk and sugar. IMHO, a bit harsh for plain drinking unless diluted. Works well for iced tea, and works well when you add slices of orange or lemon to the iced tea.

The tea steeps quickly for a strong flavour. It can be a very intense kick in the morning and is best cut with milk.

No better way to start the day than with a good strong cup of English Breakfast.

Prepared with loose-leaf tea, of course. Very good in the morning, happiness!

A decent tea, not as strong as I would like my English Breakfast.

I have had this both in K-Cup form and as loose leaf, and while I love both I prefer the loose leaf to the K cup as it gets more flavour. But first thing in the morning I am to lazy to wait for the kettle/don’t want to scoop the leaves out so I use the kcups.

This tea tastes wishy-washy to me, neither flavoursome enough for a morning cuppa nor fragrant enough for the times when you want a light refreshing brew. Takes a long time to brew and still tastes like dish-water at the end of it.
