Breakfast - Smoky Vanilla Black Tea

$27.49
Size

Tastes Like: vanilla custard, shortbread cookie, burnt toast
Feels Like: morning in a grand hotel

Our version of English Breakfast has exquisite Assam and Ceylon black teas with smoky lapsang souchong and vanilla bean. The aroma of warm vanilla custard fills your nose from the first sip of this velvety tea. Next, there's a pleasantly tannic bite with a gentle smokiness of ever-so-slightly burnt toast. Finally, the vanilla flavor returns as an intense note of freshly scraped vanilla bean. This delicate smoky vanilla flavor lingers. It’s made to be enjoyed with milk, but if you appreciate smoke, we suggest drinking it black. This tea will make you get out of bed.
A tea for lovers of malty sweet teas.

Good solid tea

This is a good solid tea. I wish it had more vanilla flavor, that would take it to stars but overall not bad. I do like it in the mornings instead of coffee!

My favorite morning tea. Great flavor, but not too strong. Holds up to milk. It is similar to Low Country but more of a natural black tea flavor. Milder, I would say.

This is one of my go. Choose for breakfast. It's delicious smooth just enough sweetness. You just add a little bit of Creamer and I don't. I'm cutting down on my sugars and sweeteners for sure. Because you only need a little bit some warnings. I don't even add it, but this tea is just delicious. The vanilla is very subtle. It's not overwhelming, but you can taste it just to hint very soothing. It's great to start off the morning.
