This blend of Ceylon and Indonesian tea leafs adds a special kick to the “classic black morning tea.” The addition of Ceylon in particular makes this blend truly a breakfast tea as the citrus of the Ceylon makes this a perfect tea to be paired with a nice plate of bacon and scrambled eggs.
Sanctuary T Shop is the online expression of New York City’s unique tea-restaurant based in Soho. It is dedicated to celebrating tea’s many forms, attributes and tastes. Owner Dawn Cameron and her team of tea-loving staffers are always experimenting for the perfect tea blends, tasting for the best pure leaf, expanding their tea knowledge, and innovating with new ways to use tea in food, cocktails and just about anything else!
I got the Plum District deal for Sanctuary T, and used it to get a lot of teasers! This is one that I’ve been interested in for a bit…I’m currently having a mild obsession with different breakfast blends. English, Irish, Scottish, French, New England…I’ve been browsing all kinds of them at various online shops (it’s a miracle I haven’t ordered them all). So, when I was perusing the Sanctuary T site plotting what to get, and saw Soho Breakfast, I couldn’t pass it up.
It’s a good, solid, robust blend. It’s got a creamy, hearty mouthfeel, and I can taste notes of bakiness (is that a real word?), and something almost like vanilla, but kind of citrusy as well. It’s definitely a good first cup o’ the morning. I think that next time, though, I’ll brew at 5 minutes to see what happens. I have a feeling that this would be even better if it were stronger.
I found this bold and it truly woke me up this morning but maybe too much I am not sure. All I know is that it was bold, hearty, slightly malty. However, it maybe just a little too strong for me so when I am finished, I am finished.
I know what you mean about breakfast blends. What is it about them that inspire such completionistism and collector feelings?
It’s like I have to know what makes each of them different. Someday, when I’ve got a solid collection of breakfast blends (I’ve only got, oh, about 6 right now), I plan on doing a side by side, cup by cup comparison so I am able to definitively know the nuances between the blends. I’m afraid the obsession is spilling over to chais now, too…
