Thompson's Scottish Blend Tea (80 Tea Bags)

Wonderful bold malty flavor, BUT, with this particular Scottish Tea, water temp and steep time are Critical, or it will be bitter. (I found out the hard way). Thomas brand Scottish Tea is much more forgiving in regard to temperature and steep time, but THIS tea, while very good, will be bitter if you steep more than 4 minutes. 3 minutes works best for me, with water temp just before boiling (like the right coffee temp). Then it’s DELIGHTFUL! Especially for the price!

I tried this tea while searching for a tea that I would use on a regular basis. I is a nice tea. Strong enough and smooth enough to drink daily. Smells great steeping, good hot or cold. Good value for the money

This tea is full-bodied and flavorful. It has become my favorite morning tea.

This is a very good Scottish breakfast tea. I make it every morning at work using bottled water that uses a process of reverse osmosis and zonation. The tea is just as strong and smooth as I remembered it from Scotland. I will buy this brand again.

Very nice and pleasant tea. even taken strong im not bouncing off the walls. good solid brand.

I am not sure where the "not strong enough" reviews come from, because this is one of the strongest teas I've had (which I like as my wake up). I even add a little more water about half-way through my cup, usually. It is a maltier tea with quite a bit of flow-through (silt in your cup), so it's almost gritty, which I don't mind at all. The taste is rich & full without being bitter, and I leave my tea bag in my cup. I bought this tea in Scotland last year & savoured it, knowing I probably wouldn't find it here near Seattle. Luckily, Amazon carries it & the price isn't outrageous. The tea is perfect with our water here, which I'd say is neither soft nor hard, but very good (we do use a Brita filter to eliminate chlorine taste). One of my fave breakfast teas!

Thompson's teas are all beyond excellent! If your tap water is hard, I would recommend mixing it with some distilled water when steeping Scottish Blend. The soft water aspect is a real thing.

The strongest tea I’ve had the pleasure to drink. Great in the AM. I based my purchase on its excellent reviews and have not been disappointed.

Superb

Bought this in Tesco but couldn't find it local so ordered fro Amazon arrived promptly Living I'm Scotland this tea suits our soft water tastes wonderful

Knocks other 'Scottish' blends into a cocked hat.
