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

This is great tea, and even though I received the wrong tea in the previous order (sent Scottish Breakfast tea), it was an easy mistake to forgive. Both teas are delicious, but Famous Edinburgh is my fave of the two. Makes a rich cup of tea quickly—I don’t steep it too long or it will be too strong for my stomach. The tin is classy, too. Also makes excellent, robust iced tea. Highly recommended!

i like my tea it's nice tea i like it

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!

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.

Delicious

this is a beautiful embossed tin and i also ordered a bag of loose leaf tea (same brand) that i will put in this tin once it is empty. it was in perfect condition no dents brand new. nothing to complain about.

I fell in love with lemon elderflower tea in the UK, but it's hard to find in the US. I was thrilled for this one, but I'm not a huge fan. It has a bitter aftertaste to it that can be compensated for some with a ton more sugar than I would usually use, but in the end it's only okay. Compared to other loose leaf teas, it's a decent value, but I won't be ordering it again.

Good strong breakfast tea but we hear it’s been discontinued so unsure what the replacement is like.
