Details:
The Harneys have been out of Ireland for some time, so our Irish Breakfast is an older version. This tea recalls a time when the teas came from Assam, not Africa, and were small, broken leaves, not CTC pellets. So this is a simple tea that can handle milk and sugar well.
Dry Leaves:
Dark brown leaves.
Liquor:
A medium-dark brown liquor.
Aroma:
This has some of the malty aromas found in other Assams. However, since it is a smaller tea and there are no tips, the aromas seem to be muted.
Flavors:
This is usually served with milk and sugar, so the flavors harmonize well with them. There are subtle notes of roast malt.
Caffeine Level:
Caffeinated
Body:
Full-bodied. This has a very good body. It is usually served with milk. Of course, the Irish would have it no other way.
Brewing Time:
4 to 5 minutes
Brewing Temp:
212º
