Irish Breakfast Tea - Loose Leaf Pouches

The Irish Breakfast Tea is a CTC style tea, which means it brews very quickly. While the tea is good when steeped for a minute or two, it quickly becomes bitter during longer steep times. Keep an eye on the watch, and you'll enjoy a fine, full-bodied breakfast tea.

Irish breakfast teas are one of my favorite kind of teas and this is one of the better blends I have had. Will be buying more when I run out.

Along with the English Breakfast Blend #2, this is my choice for a breakfast tea. It has that wonderful smooth yet vibrant taste of the best teas.

Had more depth of flavor than the stores English Breakfast tea and
had no objectionable metallic finish.

I have been drinking this English Tea Store Irish Breakfast tea for a few years now. No matter how hard I try I cannot get past it. I love this stuff.

Okay, why so intense? Well a few years ago I was looking for a tea that had a lot of body, a wake up tea you might say. After trying several teas I finally decided to give this one a try. Well that was all it took. This tea has been my daily staple since.

I guess what I like so much about this Irish breakfast is that it brews a good stout cup of tea in 7 minutes. It is not bitter, but full of flavor while being kind to the palette, ( I take mine with one sweetener and one creamer). Irish breakfast is my morning wake up. I always order this tea when my supply requires replenishment. I highly recommend this tea to everyone searching for a full bodied tea that will make you smile and carry you through the day.

I like a fairly strong tea and this fits the bill, depending on how your brew it. Irish breakfast is a stout and flavorful brew that gives you a distinct and robust taste experience. A great mornig tea, or also good for anytime, this tea renders a sense of no frills, stout downhome flavor that awakens the spirit and kickstarts the day. I like to add some sweetener and creamer to bring out the full flavor of this hearty tea. I highly recommend this to anyone that yearns for a tea with body and always leaves you wanting another cup.

I've been buying this and enjoying it for years. A friend suggested buying from another tea store. I came right back to English Tea Store, this is the best. Everyone I share it with also becomes a fan.

Another fine tea both hot and iced.
A little bit lighter tasting than Scottish Breakfast and equally as enjoyable. Especially when brewed with a bit of Lady Londonderry for a bit of citrus flavor to top it off.
Highly recommended.

I’m a repeat buyer of this delicious tea! Great Tea

I love the beautiful aroma and red color of the Assam notes blended with the robust Kenya! This is my favorite! Great Tea

Great flavor! Good choice for those who prefer the taste of loose tea to teabags. It can become very strong if left to steep more than 5 minutes or so. Fortunately, I am able to remove the basket of tea from the teapot to prevent bitterness. Black tea (Irish Breakfast)

My favorite everyday tea. Starts my day everyday. Reminds me of home. My basic stple

Irish Breafast tea is as close as tea comes to coffee as any tea I have tasted. Easily one of my favorites, this tea brews into a smooth, yet powerful, dark tea. Be forewarned, this is not a tea to drink before bed unless the sleeper intends to slumber lightly. Irish Breakfast, A robust Beginning

This tea offered by English Tea store is excellent! It is a strong flavored tea, which i like. I now use this as a substitute for coffee. English Tea store's sales and services are excellent.

This is an excellent moring tea full of flavor but not as much bite as the Scottish Breakfast tea. Great with breakfast

(Posted on 11/5/13)

The first pot I brewed I used too much and WOW, it was very strong. Once I figured out how much to use, it has become my favorite tea. If I’m still sleepy, just drop a few more leaves in and I’m awake in no time. And it has a great taste too. It’s not coffee but it certainly gives you that buzz. Excellent Eye Opener!

An excellent strong breakfast tea when brewed for 5min. This smaller leaf size brews pretty fast, so if you like your can shorten brew time and still get a great morning cup of tea. Gooood Morning!

(Posted on 11/5/13)

I look forward to every cup of this wonderful tea! It has a slight malt note that is just right for morning drinking; it is strong, smooth, and greatly satisfying. It’s also really suitable for anytime of the day. Highly recommended! Good Morning-Good Anytime

An excellent flavorful tea, not too strong, but just right. I like it fresh brewed with nothing in it. My favorite. Good flavorful tea

(Posted on 11/5/13)

Nice smooth and wonderful aroma with beautiful<br>color in clear glass. Drinking it any time of day..<br>or night after dinner. "A little goes a long way". Splendid flavor

the ETS Irish breakfast tea I’ve used was ground very fine and then compressed into granuals. It still works well in a mesh tea infuser, but like other finely ground teas, you have to be careful not to steep it too long. I like the Scottish Breakfast tea the best of the breakfast teas, but the Keemum Panda Chinese black tea is by far, the best black tea at ETS. Good, but finely ground

This tea is great for breakfast and even better for strong Iced Tea. Super

Irish Breakfast tea is one of my favorites, strong enough to get you going in the a.m. and also makes very good iced tea. very good bold tea

The best way to start the day. This full bodied and stout tea is a breakfast table must. Holds well to a natural sugar and milk. A morning staple

(Posted on 7/2/13)

The perfect cup for when you wake up. Robust, excellent flavor, takes milk well. great morning cuppa

(Posted on 6/6/13)

This is one of my favorite teas. It is robust and malty and goes well with lemon or milk and sugar. Sometimes I mix in green tea for a the antioxidants, since I’d rather eat grass than drink green tea brewed without another strong tea. Good strong start to the mornin

The Irish BT is a very good tea with plenty of flavor and color. I find it to have a little "bite" when compared to Scottish BT and perhaps not quite as robust. It is most assuredly richer than the various British BTs. A very nice alternative to the Scottish . . . at least every once in awhile. Very Good

Very good tea. A good morning tea. Irish breakfast

(Posted on 4/11/13)

I love to have this tea in the late morning. It gives a lift. Great

(Posted on 3/20/13)

Many have used the word "robust" to describe this tea. That would be accurate. I also found it to be rather "malty". After drinking it the first time, it immediately moved into my top three favorites. Strong but smooth. Excellent!

This is perfect for breakfast. Does not even need any honey which is what I normally use in my tea. Perfect for breakfast
