To open this tightly sealed package of tea is a joy! Just the aroma makes my mouth water. As a tea lover, I tried tea after tea for decades until I discovered Thompson's. This North Ireland product makes any use more satisfying and delicious. It comes with tea bags, which are handy, but I wish there was also an option to purchase bulk tea. It is likely even more delicious. I drink tea for the flavor, only secondarily for the pickup of the caffeine. My daughter, a daily tea addict, has now switched to Punjana non-caffeinated after I introduced it to her.

This is a very good, strong black tea- unlike American teas which are usually weak. I brew this together with Earl Grey- pour on boiling water and brew for 5 minutes.

5 minutes of brewing and steeping is all you need to make the perfect cup of this tea,Its aroma and scent alone are to die for, letting you know the Irish know quality over quantity when it comes to tea. Twinings should take notes, on the quality and refined essence of this beverage, for its value makes the price worth it. For a 5 - 6 minute brew time, I can’t recommend it enough. I buy it regularly.

I purchased PG Tips for years from Amazon. We all know that Amazon packaging leaves a lot to be desired (cardboard tea boxes in bubble-wrap mailer envelopes is not the smartest idea that Rocket Boy devised), but this was okay when PG Tips wrapped their boxes in cellophane, because it gave the tea bags inside some kind of fighting chance to make it through the postal system. Recently, PG Tips has (or 'have' for my UK friends) eliminated the plastic outer wrap, which means that I almost always received busted open boxes of tea...and this also meant that the tea tasted like some mixture of fabric detergents that must be perpetually wafting through the air at amazon warehouses. Thompson's packages their round teabags in foil packets (40 bags per pouch), so I get the taste of tea - not artificial fragrances!

I think I just found my new favorite Irish breakfast tea! When brewed, this tea has a deep color and a delightfully rich aroma. The flavor is robust yet smooth, and very satisfying. The outer packaging is foil (Mylar?) to keep the teabags fresh, with a sticky tab to seal it. This package is then over-wrapped with a thick clear plastic for shipping. Inside, you’ll find unwrapped teabags in pairs, without strings. This is more eco-friendly and no doubt a bit more cost-effective. I store the entire package in a sealable plastic bag for extra freshness.Now here’s a novel way to brew a mug of tea when you don’t want to bother with your kettle: place a teabag in a microwave-safe mug and add cold water to approximately 3/4 - 4/5 full. Place the mug in your microwave oven and heat for 5 minutes at 50% power (you may need to adjust this based on the wattage of your unit, the size of your mug, etc.). When finished, remove the mug from the microwave (CAUTION: CONTENTS WILL BE HOT). Briefly stir gently, remove the teabag, then sweeten and/or add milk or lemon as desired, and enjoy! Basically, the tea steeps for 5 minutes as the water heats in the microwave, but never gets to the point where the teabag is boiled. No doubt the “tea-drinking purists” out there will cringe at this technique , but it does in fact work well!

TLDR: Great flavor but maybe too strong for me, even though I love strong tea.I love a strong tea. English breakfast is a sad consolation in my book. I'm not too snooty about flavor or a proper cup, but I do like a robust flavor. I like Twining's (most readily available in the markets here), but moved to Taylor's when I started shopping online during the pandemic. Looking for something different, I found Thompson's. Great reviews. Even found out from reviews here I apparently drink a builder's cup.I've tried this tea 3 times. Just one cup in the AM. After day 2 I had terrible chest pains and light headedness and my BPM was a bit high through the day. Almost thought I was having a heart attack, but my doctor said it was likely indigestion. I cut all caffeine and alcohol for a few days and symptoms subsided. I went back to my old tea yesterday, felt just fine. Tried Thompson's again today (3rd time) and my chest pains, lightheadedness came back before I hit the bottom of the cup.Maybe it is the type of black tea making me feel ill, maybe it's a bad batch, maybe I'm allergic to something else in it, maybe it's too acidic. I wish I knew. I'd hate to water it down though and have flavored milk water. Note it can't be too much caffeine because I usually drink a HiBall energy drink (160mg) through my graveyard shifts.Thompson's tastes great, a good robust and malty flavor to it. Just wish it didn't mess my insides up! Only 1* off due to my reaction to it but it deserves the other 4* for flavor and price.
