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.

I love this stuff. I am a big fan of EBT’s and this one is my staple. Mainly because ease of access. It wakes me up in the morning and has a pleasing aroma and taste. I like mine with a little sweetener and no cream.

This is great tea-I love England and love that it is Twinnings from London. I do prefer black teas to greens or whites, and this I love the robust strong aroma and flavor of this assam.

This was okay. I liked their Irish Breakfast Tea better, but since this goes well with milk (which is how I like to take my tea) I enjoyed it.

This is my stock standard wake me up tea. “Just the stuff to feed the troops”, as my dad would say. :)

My friend Juana Libedinsky’s critically acclaimed book about British intellectuals — from an Argentine perspective — borrows its title from this wonderful tea: http://bit.ly/15ZhRv
