Because I love both Numi teas and Breakfast Blends, I had high hopes for this one, but it turned out to be a big disappointment. Glad I didn't purchase a whole box of this, and opted for a sampler instead.
Not enough maltiness or depth. Edgy astringent notes were able to be rounded off with milk and a hint of honey, but it was still too flat and dull.
I recommend Twinings' Prince of Wales (amazing!), or their Irish or English Breakfast over this one. Definitely needs some work. But that's okay, because the other Numi offerings make up for it. So glad I went with the sampler first and didn't waste my money on this.
