“Had this one again this morning, and I’m lowering the rating a bit. It seems I was a bit overzealous in my first review. Or maybe I had just been deprived a good breakfast tea for so long I forgot...” Read full tasting note

From Tazo

Can’t find your invite for high tea with the Queen? (It must’ve gotten lost in the mail.) Luckily, our take on traditional breakfast-style black tea is even bolder and more robust, with a modern twist of Darjeeling front and center—no RSVP required.

- - —

A breakfast-style black tea of malty boldness and bright flavor, invigorating any time of day.

The sun peeks over the horizon through the clouds, a star streaks undetected across the sky and the world begins anew. This bold and flavorful blend of black teas will send you down the day’s path wondering where it will take you and if it’s possible to bring along a friend.

Tried this morning. Not that impressed. It didn’t have the bold, wake-you-up flavor I remember.

Nothing special. Usually fairly tasteless in my opinion. Shame starbucks carries this stuff.

The key to a good brew is not to oversteep! Had this several times, experimenting with different steeping times. It really was “invigorating”.

This tea is invigorating and flavorful to me. Not bitter at all unless overbrewed. Good breakfast tea.

I don’t know where Tazo is getting this black tea from, but it’s awful. Super bitter, not malty and just an overall bad experience. The taste reminded me of how sewage smells.

Even my generic grocery store brand of black teas is in a better position than this. Seriously. Avoid this like the plague, or at least mix it with another, more robust tea. Blech.
