“We've enjoyed this brand, which we recently bought for the first time. Rich flavor and color, and stands up well to my sometimes heavy hand with milk. First purchase, but not the last.”
“I really the Great Rift as a breakfast tea with milk. As one reviewer pointed out, you can leave the tea bags in and it doesn't get nasty-tasting; completely agree. I don't get any of the lemon flavor another reviewer noted, just a nice balance of warm/mellow and darker tea flavors with no distracting perfumyness. The tea seems very fresh and the bags are as strong as any other I have (that is, two bags per pot works well as it does with other teas I like). For reference, for breakfast teas I also like Typhoo, Barry's Black, Barry's Gold, PG Tips, and for an occasional change Irish Breakfast (Barry's). I also tried the Bewley's Dublin Morning tea in this order and it's a little more smoky-dark than I like for my regular breakfast tea.”
“I first had Birchall English breakfast (in pyramid bag) in London and loved the bold clear taste of it and fell in love with it. I have been order them from their UK website. When I saw the English breakfast is available in US, I decided to give it a try. This is the regular tea bag version. It is alright but cant compare with the pyramid version I loved. The quality and taste are clearly not the same. I hope teadog can make the pyramid bag version available. Although its more pricey, definitely worth it.”
“So got a box of this in London and the tea bag was a mesh and the tea was very fresh. Looking for same thing in US but this is a different bag and the flavor is not the same. This isn't what I thought it would be not as good.”
“I was slightly disappointed in this tea. There is an odd, to me, lemony taste to this tea. I don't mind lemon in my tea, but I prefer to add it myself. It is, however, a nice robust tea.”
