I have tried Vietnamese Sencha.

Better than Chinese but nowhere near to Sencha Uji

I have also done some research on types of Breakfast teas.
Apparently there are 3 types: English, Irish and Scottish.
If you look superfluously, then what our Tea King Stitchawl said is correct.
English Breakfast is a strong smoky beverage ...made from Keenum Chinese black tea and Irish Breakfast is a blend of Assam and Ceylon black tea varieties

However, the reality is a bit different and more like: the blend vary, with Assam, Ceylon and Kenyan teas predominating, and Keemun sometimes included in more expensive blends

Probably our Tea King has a better access (and taste) to the better types of English Breakfast than us, mortals.

Irish is what was said It is a blend of several black teas; most often Assam teas

So, in the modern world it is mix and match. You must know which brand is better and hunt for it specifically.

Feel better. The tea can only help your cause if you drink it. It will help with hydration and the warmth will probably make you feel better.
