So, question for Stitchawl -- I've been wanting to try a new breakfast tea. I want something that doesn't require milk, but does have some authority and a fair amount of brightness. If I could go down to the market and get 100g each of Yorkshire, Ahmad's, and a couple of others, I'd just do it, but the only way I'm going to get any of the one's you've mentioned will require ordering from Amazon. And THAT means a somewhat larger quantity than I really want to go for sight unseen, especially if I'm trying multiple.

So, the question: given one choice of a commercially available breakfast tea, which one would you suggest? I'm willing to search out a source (or fall back on Amazon) for one at a time as I search for an alternate to my standard Anniversary Breakfast Blend from Peet's. Not that I don't like it, but every year is an adventure, and not all adventures are good ones.

This year's isn't as much to my taste as last year's, but last year's was not as well received by some. Tastes vary.

Meanwhile, a mug of that Anniversary Breakfast Blend in my mug right now.
