This high-quality blend boasts a luxurious and well-rounded character, achieved by carefully selecting only the finest leaves of Assam during peak quality periods and then vacuum-packing them to maintain freshness. Complemented by tea from the high-grown slopes of Mount Kenya, this infusion offers a refreshing finish and a full, bright flavor. With its growing popularity in the United States, Thompson's Irish Breakfast Tea's first shipment safely landed in Boston, thankfully without any repeat of the historic Boston Tea Party of 1773.
