ATLAS English Breakfast

English Breakfast is the tea everyone knows – a bold, full-bodied black tea made to start the day. It's rich and brisk, with a malty depth and enough backbone to stand up to milk and sugar without fading. Reliable, comforting and endlessly drinkable, it's the cup you reach for first thing in the morning.

Tasting Notes

The cup pours a deep coppery red and smells warm and malty. It's full-bodied and briskly refreshing, with a robust black-tea character, gentle malty sweetness and a clean, satisfying finish. It's built to take milk – a splash softens it into something smooth – and holds up to sugar or a slice of lemon just as well. Bold without being harsh, it's an everyday classic for good reason.

The Breakfast Classic

English Breakfast is a blend built for the morning: strong black teas chosen to give a rich, brisk, full-bodied cup that pairs naturally with milk. It's been the mainstay of the breakfast table for well over a century, and it's still the benchmark everyday black tea – the one that goes with toast and a slow start.

Brewing

Heat fresh water to 95 °C and steep one tea bag for 3 minutes. It's a black tea, so it can turn bitter if brewed too long – keep to the time and add milk if you like; brew it stronger for a proper builder's cup.
