English Breakfast
Couldn't load pickup availability
A classic blend of robust black teas. Lighter than Irish Breakfast. Can tolerate milk & sugar, or lemon. Your "regular" black tea. Also check out Victoria's Cup, our Organic English Breakfast.

I currently enjoy six teas from Silver Tips. A gang of us in White Plains visited the tea room twice a week. Since there were four of us we ordered four different teas; each of us taking a half cup of each blend. My present choices come from those visits. I miss the shop and all the memories we made there.
We miss all of you too! And what a lovely review - those were grand days - thanks for the memories.
When I want a flavorful tea to pick me up in the morning or from my afternoon slump English Breakfast tea is my go to tea, strong with a dash of milk.
Steeping Instructions
Use 1 tsp. of leaf per 8 oz. cup.
Pour boiling water over leaves.
Steep 4-5 mins.
Milk may be added.


Tea Education
The original English Breakfast was a straight China Keemun. Nowadays, it is a house blend developed by each company to approximate a medium-strength black tea without too much astringency or bite. Almost all English Breakfast teas take well to milk and fit the need for consumers looking for a "regular tea". Some companies use India teas while others select China or Kenya teas. Ours uses Indian black tea.

A reliable, delicious tea that's great with milk!

Such a great tea! I really enjoy the rich flavor and excellent mouth feel.

When I am looking for a some real punch in my teacup, I brew Irish Breakfast. It goes well with milk and is great for dunking my favorite biscuits (cookies in the USA).

I grew up in a suburb of Cape Town, called Kenilworth. That is why I tried this blend of black tea. It has become a family favorite.

As I can't consume caffeine anymore, and I have been sad to not be able to drink my Silver Tips regular Earl Grey, I was so excited to find that they also have a decaffeinated Earl Grey! It is lovely and I am now able to enjoy my cup of tea again.

High quality, great price

Silver Tips Earl Grey always makes my day! It starts my day, too!

The tumeric chai tea is my favorite hot or iced but the anti inflammatory properties of the Tumeric Chai is a delicious healthy treat I can enjoy every day. I have many flavors from Silver Tips but this flavor is the one I reorder the most.

I am so happy to see that my favorite jasmine tea is back. Just the right balance of smoothness and tastiness has enabled it to be well-received by all to whom I have served it, whether casual or serious tea drinkers.
I only wish there were an organic option. Regardless, I love this tea!

An absolutely wonderful daily drinker. No astringency, and the subtle hint of jasmine is wonderful!

Using it daily

The most relaxing time of the day with my wife is our afternoon tea. We take our time as while the tea cools it improves in both flavor, mouth feel, and of course the buzz. This is my only deliberate flirt with caffeine and everything else that is packed into this tea. We believe this time together, music, tea, and laughing improves all the rest of our life.

I discovered this tea some years ago and have been using it ever since.

great non-caffeinated treat when I want something warm and sweetened with honey and almond milk
