Best English Breakfast Tea Review by ['Liesl']
I've been ordering my english breakfast tea from Murchie's for years. It's the best blend that I've tried. I even take a box with me whenever I go on vacation.

Tea is the best way to get going in the morning! Of all the many breakfast teas out there, especially those in supermarkets, restaurants, hotels and tea boutiques, Murchie’s is by far the best. The full- body, dark amber colour and smooth taste are markers of this strong and hearty tea without being bitter. Spoil yourself with a classic tea.

I've had the pleasure and privilege of drinking Murchie's tea for the better part of 40 years. It has been my daily tea of choice all that time. English Breakfast is my preference, but enjoy a number of Murchie's teas. I find consistent quality and excellent service to be a hallmark of Murchie's. I live in the Seattle area and order my tea either by phone or online. It's worth the effort!

I love, love, love this loose tea! I have drank this English Breakfast tea for years, and it is the best way to start your morning off right! The individual tea bags are great for business trips, so you can always have the perfect cup of tea in the morning no matter where you are!

For years we have started the day with Murchies English Breakfast. Can't imaging a morning without it.
Posted on 2014-10-09The BEST Review by Tea Every Morning
Murchie's English Breakfast is the best we can find anywhere, and we have tried many others. We regularly order and have it shipped to the U.S. We make sure we have English Breakfast on hand for our morning tea.
Posted on 2014-05-29Murchie's English Breakfast is the BEST Review by Carrie from Washington State
I've been drinking tea for over 35 years--my whole adult life--and have had the pleasure of spending most of that time drinking Murchie's EB. While I am a creature of habit, I try to make my habits rich and rewarding, and the full-bodied yet mellow flavor of Muruchie's EB has been consistent and very satisfying for all this time. Thank you Murchie's!

This is an delicious English Breakfast. Smooth taste. Great with milk. It has the taste, and doesn't break the bank. Must try.

Steeping the Best (Guide)
Different types of teas should be steeped according to certain times and water temperatures to bring out their best flavours. Use this guide as a starting point, and then experiment until you find the perfect brewing method for your favourite tea.
Based on approximately one level teaspoon (2.5 g) of loose tea or one tea bag per 6-8 ounce (180-240 mL) cup. For stronger flavour, add more tea. Brewing for longer may increase the strength of the tea, but will likely also cause bitterness.
Tea Bags vs. Loose Tea
While our tea bags and loose tea are crafted to match the same flavour profile, there are discernable effects between the two formats. Namely, the leaves inside tea bags is milled, making it much finer and a quicker brew, while loose tea can take a couple minutes longer to steep. Tea bags are very convenient, but loose tea can be more visually appealing and brewed with a reusable infuser.
- Tea bags: steep for 3 - 4 minutes
- Loose tea: steep for 4 - 5 minutes
General Steeping Temperatures
The table included here shows some general guidelines for steeping different kinds of tea. Be mindful that some teas, even two from the same category, will brew differently than others. In particular, our green-black blends will often have different ratios of green and black teas - the more green-leaning ones should be brewed at a lower temperature range. Experimentation is highly encouraged, as tea is very much a matter of personal taste.
Puerh and oolong teas are often steeped multiple times for a shorter period of time in smaller brewing vessels. This method creates a curious exploration of the tea as it unfurls, developing new flavours with each subsequent brew - often making for great social conversation.
If you're unsure, try steeping in the middle range for your tea type. If the result is too bitter, steep at a lower temperature or for a shorter time. If the result is flat, try a higher temperature.
