According to my last entry for this tea, I’ve had it for at least 5 years aaaaaaand SIPDOWN! It feels like a slight cheat of a sipdown because I tossed half a serving of the crumbs at the bottom of the tin, but you can’t make a good cup out of that and that’s the story I’m sticking to.
This has been a solid tea to have in my cupboard and I have enjoyed it, but it doesn’t stand out enough in the sea of malty breakfast teas to buy more. I wouldn’t turn down a cup, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to source one either. In the malt I can find notes of light tobacco towards the end of the sip. It holds up well to the addition of cream to tone down tannins. It’s a decent tea.

I always toss the dust at the bottom of the tin! It just makes the last cup worse IMO. :P
I like lots of Gurman teas but have never tried this one!
Very true, Cameron. No need to sipdown a tea with a bad cup!
I did like this one, but I think Irish Cream was my favorite of the small selection I bought. It had chocolate in it!
