Picky tea drinker
By LynnVerified Reviewer from Mississippi on 2/4/2008

My father is a picky tea drinker. Actually, he is a Lipton drinker and has generally refused to drink almost everything else. For Christmas we got him a package of loose tea and a mug. Usually this type of thing gets buried in the back of the cabinet, but he pulled it out and tried it. The next day he started telling me how good this tea was and how I should try some right away! I've been a Mighty Leaf fan for years and it is wonderful to share it with others.

This tea is the best of the best. I am a tea consumer and have tasted many breakfast teas. None compares to this tea in flavor and smoothness. It has no bitter after taste. It is wonderful with milk and honey.

A few years ago I first tried Organic Breakfast's predecessor, American Breakfast, and was delighted to discover a delicious whole leaf tea in a pouch (I preferred the pouches to the loose tea). Organic Breakfast is better and more consistent than the former American Breakfast and has become my daily anytime brew. It is rich and satisfying and better than any other breakfast blend I have found. I recently ordered several 4 ounce packages to stock home and office. It is also a good value. The blend is reminiscent of another fine blend , Brussels Breakfast, distributed by Le Pain Quotidien but recently discontinued as a loose tea.

This is a great morning tea, of course, but it's also great for those times when your taste buds are tired and you don't want a flavored tea.

I had the pleasure of trying out this new (to me) tea while staying in the [...] San Diego California. Wow, what a smooth tea! It's not prone to over-steeping like some and the flavor just gets more bold the longer you let it steep. I prefer to let my tea sit for at least 5 minutes before drinking and take ~1 tsp of honey with it.

A great all day, every day tea. Very balanced. I'm always on the lookout for a tea I can make a Thermos full in the morning and take to work. Higher end teas don't always hold up. This one just might be the one. The only downside is the cost. Other sources have nearly as good of tea for less.

I ordered this tea because Cooks' Illustrated recommended it for tea drunk without milk. As I can no longer drink milk, I have been searching for a tea that is excellent without milk, and I have found it. Tough for one from Welsh heritage.
