Scottish Breakfast

Perfect when you want something rich, strong, and malty. I love it with breakfast, but I also use it for brewing kombucha.

Lovely blend.

This is my all time favorite tea, I've tried others and always end up coming back to this one. Goes perfect with a bit of oat milk and I never feel the need to sweeten it.

The Scottish Breakfast is a great alternative to coffee! Full bodied and delicious! Highly recommended!

Price is good for the quantity, but not nearly as strong as traditional Scottish Breakfast tea

Delicious and smooth.

I enjoyed this tea after trying about 16 samples on this website. Now I go between Irish, Scottish and English breakfast teas.. with a bit of pu erh Scottish caramel.. All have been good from this store. I like the packaging of the 4oz bags. This particular tea is a solid 8/10 for the way it made me feel and how much energy I felt after a morning cup. Positive vibes received.

I love this tea. It is a black tea with a good full taste. I can add honey and lemon and still have a good tea taste. You can add milk or cream to enhance the flavor. Thanks for the tea.

My daily morning tea! Stronger than English Breakfast. I've also tried the German Breakfast, and honestly the taste is very similar. It's only if you have to two side by side do you notice that the German Breakfast has a slight malty taste, which I do not like as much, which is why this is my steady daily breakfast tea. I may add a dash of other teas as well (Vanilla Cream, Chai, or Snowflake) if I'd like a little bit of a different taste to it. Honestly, you can't go wrong with this one!

I compared several different breakfast teas and found I prefer the Scottish Breakfast tea. It has a good strong tea flavor. It also has a very appealing aroma which adds to my tea experience.

I really enjoy the slightly malty taste of Scottish Breakfast tea. It has been my go-to morning tea for the past five years.

This is a great, robust everyday tea. I slightly prefer the German Breakfast, but that's only because I tasted them side by side. If I were to have them individually I doubt I would be able to tell the difference. They are both strong black teas (no milk or sugar) that resist going bitter.

I'm an evening tea drinker, but as a morning coffee guy, I like my tea to have a bit of weight to it. As such I typically drink something like an Irish Breakfast tea. When I saw this Scottish Breakfast I had to give it a try. You can definitely pick out a couple of notable flavors, and you're left with something of a pleasant aftertaste. I take my tea with a hint of milk and sometimes a dollop of honey, but I'd say if you oft times add a sweetener, you might try this without the first time. I found I prefer this particular tea that way.

This has become my go to favorite morning brew. It is very smooth and holds up well with a splash of milk with no sugar. A full creamy rich taste. I have come to prefer this over the Twinings English Loose Leaf that I used to drink daily. Great taste and a great way to start the day!

This was so delicious that I am sad I bought the smallest size available. Will be ordering more soon!!

A delicious tea that is very strong and goes well with just a little bit of milk.

My wife and I learned of the pleasures of drinking Scottish Breakfast tea while, some years ago, visiting Scotland and living in a Landmark Trust property. The tea became our "go to" tea in the mornings; mine black and my wife's with a touch of milk. When we returned, we searched many tea suppliers in an attempt to find a Scottish Breakfast tea to replace the tea we had in Scotland. Luckily, The Whistling Kettle had just what we wanted: A full-bodied, flavorful tea to bring back our memories of Scotland. Nearly every order we make to TWK has to contain Scottish Breakfast, as we drink it regularly. If you are looking for a true Scottish Breakfast tea which is never harsh or bitter, even when brewed "strong", but which will bring back memories of Scotland or inspire you to consider traveling there, you will find it at TWK.

This tea is very earthy and very strong.

This tea has a beautiful flavor. Robust and full bodied it really holds up to milk. I've always been a huge Irish Breakfast fan and now I am thrilled to have Scottish Breakfast to add to my list of favorites. Will be ordering more soon!

This tea is full bodied, flavorful and helps jump start the morning, while still being soothing. I like to alternate it with English Breakfast Tea. It does go quickly since I like it so much!

I bought this tea for my husband (tea drinking expert) and he loves it. It is a full leaf tea, very smooth and not too much caffeine. We have plenty now but at the rate he is drinking it I will have to get more soon. He says: "The drink of Kings, Pharaohs, Emperors and an occasional Queen!!

This has been my go-to breakfast tea for years. It's just right -- not as roasty as Irish breakfast, not as delicate as English breakfast, and it has a lively bright flavor that is all it's own. Perfect with a little milk. Before discovering WK I used to order Yorkshire Gold loose-leaf by the kilo, but this is MUCH better.

This one is a favorite in our house!

I love whistling kettle teas! It’s hard to find tea that doesn’t taste like hot water and this is the place to go! My favorite so far is German breakfast but the Scottish is great too, strong the way I like tea and holds up with a little milk and sugar . Delivery is fast as well! Thanks for such great teas

I was looking for an addition to my breakfast tea rotation. Recently, I was offered Scottish Breakfast tea, which I had not heard of before, at a nice restaurant. I enjoyed it very much and decided to order a small quantity to try at home. Before I had finished that small portion I ordered a pound from the Whistling Kettle. It's now a part of my morning routine on a regular basis.

This is simply the best breakfast tea I have ever had. I received this as part of the black tea sampler over a year ago and have been drinking it since. A strong, not bitter, slightly malty cup of deliciousness. I drink mine with a bit of whole milk - fantastic.

Visited the whistling kettle about 2-3 years ago and tried the Scottish breakfast tea. Loved it and have been drinking it ever since.

I;ve tried English Breakfast Tea and Irish Breakfast Tea, but I hadn't yet tried Scottish Breakfast Tea. I decided to add a sample to my most recent order. It is a very hearty tea, not bitter or harsh, and stood up well to a splash of milk and a little sugar. I like a strong cuppa, so I doubled the recommended amount for one cup (and my cup is little over-sized - about ten ounces). I really enjoyed it, and will be looking forward to ordering it next time. Thank you for introducing me to a new best friend!

I'm fairly traditional when it comes to black teas. I love Irish breakfast tea and English breakfast tea, and occasionally enjoy some earl grey. But this Scottish breakfast tea is definitely one of my top favorites for my morning cups of tea. It is ever so slightly smoky and not at all sweet -- just like Scotch whisky in some ways. It's an excellent accompaniment to a savory breakfast. Highly recommended!

I haven't found a Scottish tea anywhere else that tastes this good! It is strong, flavorful and absolutely delicious in the morning.

I think this one has a stronger bite than the typical black tea, and I understand that this is how the Scots drink it. Strong and heavy, I love this with my breakfast.
