This tea is like a proper Highlander, robust, malty (not unlike a good Scotch) and full of life and vigor. Highlanders liked their tea very strong and insisted on hints of cask oak to remind them of their clan's own special elixir, single malt Scotch. Our Scottish breakfast has some CTC grade tea, this allows the tea to brew strong and quickly. Look for the small pellets in the picture. This tea is dry compared to an 'English breakfast' and is absent of the sweetness. Best when served with milk and sugar.

Brewing Instructions:

Bring filtered or spring water to 212°F. Add 1 tsp of tea leaves to an 8oz cup. Pour boiling water over the tea leaves and let steep 4 minutes.

Ingredients:

  • Black teas

Origin:

Blend

I had been looking for a brisk, sturdy black tea for breakfast and wanted to try something other than English breakfast tea. I have Scottish DNA, so I figured I'd like this. ;-) It is just what I need in the morning: strong, tastes great with a little milk and/or sugar, not particularly complex or nuanced. It gets you going and it's pleasant to drink.

New Mexico Tea Company was kind enough to send me some samples. I almost cried. This is a brisk, dry brew perfect for those Europeans who love it with a spot of milk and/or sugar. But for us purists it is good on it's own as well. It goes perfect with apple blueberry oatmeal. The astringency comes in the aftertaste as it generally does but with it also comes a nice woodsy flavor. Like a mellowed out pine box. I can't smell anything of the dry leaf but the wet leaf is wonderful. Wet woods with twigs.

Am a big fan of this robust tea. Tend to make it on the strong side to support adding milk. Bracing, even-flavored, and somewhat dry.

I love this tea - true to the description, it brews strong and quickly, and with some good quality half and half and sugar of your choice it is a really lovely tea for any time of day.
