The stout one. Irish Breakfast blends February-plucked Kenya BP1 with second-flush Assam for a cup with real heft — very full-bodied, deep coppery colour, and a malty backbone that doesn't blink at milk. If English Breakfast is a firm handshake, this is a bear hug. Made for early mornings.

Ingredients: Black tea (BOP/BP1 grades, CTC). Caffeine: Medium.
Brewing: 1 heaped tsp per cup, freshly boiled water, 3–5 minutes — or simmer it strong and add milk, Irish style.

Loose leaf — available in 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz and 16 oz.
