Irish Breakfast Tea - Celtic Peacock Irish Weave Designed Tin, 1pack, 50 count

My favorite tea! It's delicious.

Darling tea cozy and holds 50 bags

I have small collection of tea tins and larger collection of teapots. So this is great addition to my collection. I am a loose tea drinker though, so bagged teas are never my choice unless I'm at restaurants. I do enjoy Irish Breakfast tea, although prefer English Breakfast or my favorite which is Prince of Wales tea.This bagged tea was a bit bitter for my taste, seeped about 3-4 minutes - so I'll have to try it with less seeping next time. I'll also try it loose brewed, as you can always taste the bag. I gave it 4 stars overall as average for my reviews above. I think it was a little expensive - but since I'm a true Celtic American with higher English/Irish/Wales in my DNA and ancestry... so I loved the tin.If I remember, I'll update review after trying it again.

Brew at 200°FSteep for 5 minutesAdd a finger's width of milkAdd 2-3 cubes of sugarMakes a perfect cup of tea.Can re-steep it twice off the same bag and get the same strong flavoring. Third time is a bit weak but if you don't add milk you will get more of the flavor the third time.If you like the English #1 breakfast tea then I suspect that you will enjoy this tea as well.I like it in the morning with something sweet or chocolaty as a good pairing. Or in the mid-morning while working to help me keep my focus.If you don't like milk substitute it or remove it, same with the sugar. It is just as good with honey.I personally like loose tea, you get more for what you pay for generally. The tea bags are disk bags with no string. Easy to fish out with a spoon out of your cup.The package came from Dublin and looks nice. After all the original tea is used I will be keeping the tin to store other loose tea that I have. I would like to try some other Irish Breakfast blends to compare but I would recommend this brand.

I bought this tea for the lovely tin, but the tea is really good, too.

I was given this as a gift & then bought 2 myself for my mom & aunt. The tin is SO CUTE & the tea is SO GOOD. I’m used to Lipton and this was an eye opener! Just such a mellow tea…no tea aftertaste like Lipton. The canister lid is hard for me to get off but I just now lay the lid down lightly. It’s probably me. I love love love this tea. Game changer..now I’ll be searching for Irish tea for sure. Great purchase!

This is a nice strong tea with good flavor. I love the tin it comes in.

Gift quality tea and container! Wonderful celtic design and some of the best Irish breakfast tea ever!
