Since my husband had claims to the final steep of the English Breakfast we had been working on this morning, I decided to give this a try. I was pleasantly surprised, after reading some of the other reviews I was afraid that I would have a bitter, tasteless cup. I steeped this for a low time at a medium temp and found it very good. I definately pick up a malty quality that sort of reminds me of coffee, however, the claims of caramel and dark cherry are crazy…did not get either one of those. Overall, this is decent for a tea bag, in fact my favorite tea bag so far. When I run out of my loose leaf English Breakfast I may have to pick up a box of this until I can get an online order.

I should try this one day. Last time I tried this as a tea latte at starbucks and it was virtually tasteless, but that was probably because they never steeped it for enough time before pouring in too much milk compared to the amount of tea.
Malty quality that reminds one of coffee… I used to be a coffee drinker, so maybe I’ll like it!

I am a coffee drinker also (although lately I have been just a tea drinker…) and I thought this was pretty good. Make sure to drink it hot though, as it cools it seems to lose taste.
