Brodies Tea, Scottish Afternoon Tea, Loose Leaf Black Tea Imported from Scotland, 200g Bag (Pack of 1)

Brodie's Scottish Breakfast tea has become my favorite tea. I suffer from loss of taste due to COVID-19 and am now unable to distinguish between a lot of teas that I used to love. However, I am able to taste this strongly flavored tea and enjoy it with sugar and a splash of milk in the morning.

The media could not be loaded.  I've had Scottish Teas in Scotland, and wanted to experience that here at home in the US. I bought this after trying some Scottish Tea in teabags (different brand), and feeling let down that there was no boldness or true flavor. I based this choice of customer reviews, and I'm glad I did, because this tea is wonderfully delicious and bold.I've tried it sweetened with milk, alone, and with a touch of fresh Meyer Lemon juice. I like it with the lemon and plain, no sweetener, best!It's sent in a beautiful container and I especially like the doubled up top (see the video for some detailing). The tea was super fresh, and the tightly sealed container tells me it will remain that way for a while! It is not a strong smelling tea, like Earl Grey or English Breakfast, and it has it's own special scent. Pictured, I served it with some avocado toast & feta, and found it complemented my meal well. I also enjoy it without meals, as a nice cup of tea in the morning or afternoon!Because it's such good quality tea, for the price, I'll be purchasing this again, and now will explore their other teas!Enjoy!

Authentic Scotland Blended Teas From India, Ceylon and other sources of pure teas blended strictlyin Scotland. Family run business from the19Th.Century and thriving into the 21St. Century using thesame original exact blends of first grade teas. The metal tea container also keeps the contents fresher than any tea bag and with whole leaf in canned tea provides better flavour and aroma.Ii is indeed more costly but as a gift or gift to yourself item, this tea is of superior quality yielding a fantastic gourmet cup of fragrant delicious tea, good by itself or with traditional cream and sugar.

The flavor is pretty good, it's definitely not the best cup of tea I've ever had, far from it, but it hits the spot considering I've had bad luck with amazon teas recently. It tastes pleasingly strong and holds up well to a bit of milk. I havent tried it with sugar so I cant tell you if that would wash away the flavor or not, but I suspect it would still have a distinct black tea taste and not just that of watered down sugary milk, which is a problem with a lot of teas sold on Amazon. It definitely taste stale, this tea has definitely been through its share of middlemen. The main problem I have with it is this is sold as "loose leaf tea" but these arent leaves at all, these are pebbles. I included a photo in this review taken right from the top of the bag. Rice Krispies are about 3 times the size of one of these tea pebbles. They do not unfold after being in water like a rolled Oolong either, I'm not entirely sure what these things are. It said "Fine Teas" on the package and I guess what it meant was "teas so fine you will need to strain them through cheesecloth to prevent them from escaping into your cup by the dozen." I will say that they do at least hold their shape, whatever they are, so they arent like the macerated tea dust you get from the factory floor that's in lots of bagged teas. You will definitely need some kind of measuring scoop for these, you simply can not take a pinch from the bag without losing half of what you took. For $11.89 (or ~1.35/oz) it is a good value for what you're getting and it is good enough to be there for breakfast if you decide to skip coffee. Don't expect anything fancy, this is a simple workhorse black tea for those on a budget who prefer loose tea over bagged.

flavor and smell is great, a welcome addition to my morning. I no longer miss Coffee

Drank this tea across Scotland and still enjoying it at home

Brodies Tea, Scottish Breakfast Tea is a wonderful wake up tea!

Happy with the product but it needs to be packaged and shipped better when half the reason to get it is the container. Just opened it and it’s dented, not going to bother sending it back to risk it again, just going to try reshaping it on my own. A fragile sticker would go a long way.

We attended the Edinburgh Tattoo as a hospitality guest within the Queens box and were given this tea brand as a gift. We fell in love with it so we brought more and more.The tea is smooth yet full bodyed, easy drinking with the morning toast or afternoon cake.

茶葉を見ますとCTCであることが分かります。おそらくCTCの茶葉のブレンドだということでしょう。　飲んでみますと、CTCの割には優しい印象でパンチは弱いですが、主張しすぎないので何杯でも飲むことができそうです。　普段飲みのミルクティー用の茶葉としては十分選択肢の中に入るかと思います。何よりamazonでCTCの茶葉を扱っていることが少ないので、ここでは非常に貴重な存在と言えるでしょう。

オレンジの色がきれいに出ます。細長い茶葉ではなく、丸くて小さいつぶ状のリーフでした。ロイヤルスコティッシュに比べると、あっさりしています。ミルクティーでのむには少し物足りないかも。タータンチェックの缶が可愛い。コレクションしたくなります。抽出時間、湯量を整えると、ぐっと香りがよくなります。
