Scottish Breakfast

$6.9 ~~$10~~ In stock

Tasting Notes: earthy, malty, rich

Description: A hearty breakfast tea designed for the Highlands of Scotland. A robust brew that has an earthy highland taste with notes of peat and earth. A strong black tea with hints of malt, oak, black pepper, hay, and honey.

This bold black tea works well with milk and sugar but can also be sipped straight up if you love a robust and earthy breakfast tea.

Scottish Breakfast differs from the other breakfast teas due to its notes of peat and earth. It is darker and heavier than our English Breakfast, which has a lighter body with a more brisk balanced flavor. Irish Breakfast is malty and smooth with a round mouth-feel and a thick and stout body.

Ingredients: blend of black teas from India, China, Sri Lanka (Ceylon)

Steep Directions: steep 1 heaping teaspoon of tea per 8 oz boiling water, 205-212°F, for 3-5 minutes

This has become my go-to morning cup, especially on cold days when I want something that actually wakes me up. The peat and earth notes give it a depth I didn't get from my old supermarket breakfast blend, and it holds up well with a splash of milk.

The malty, earthy depth is exactly what I want first thing in the morning—it actually tastes like the Highlands instead of a generic bagged tea. It brews up dark and rich without turning bitter, even when I leave the bag in a bit too long.

I was skeptical that a breakfast tea could feel this substantial, but the malty richness makes it perfect with a splash of milk first thing in the morning. It brews up dark and hearty without turning bitter, even when I let it steep a little too long.
