the quality of the tea is great, no dust, and it's organic. The leaves are small-cut though. The taste is not as bold and vivid as of other Indian teas from this manufacturer. And the brew is not strong, no mater how much tea you put. So if you prefer a stronger taste and smell, you'd better try a different tea. The package is big and is supposed to last.

Customer reviews
I found this tea surprisingly balanced and still very good as breakfast blend. Compared to Frontiers English Breakfast variety this one to me is much better, the English becomes undrinkable even if overbrewed for a minute. The Irish has a very subtle floral aroma and I recommend brewing 4-5 minutes, i strongly recommend Thai tea for anyone who likes hearty breakfast teas. The caffeine content is high but that is to be expected from a breakfast tea, the aroma before brewing is light but once brewed it’s a real treat.
I really enjoyed this lovely tea, was not disappointed in the quality of this tea. Will gladly purchase this tea on my next shopping trip on this site. The tea was as promised and arrived in a timely manner. The flavor of the tea was more than I could have hoped for and was enjoyed by all who joined in a cup of this tea with myself. No doubt they will also purchase this high-quality product. Organic is always my product choice and what a way to enjoy your morning with such a quality product.
I do like it very much. It has a full body and taste. However it is mostly finely ground than other loose teas I’ve ordered so I use more of it in my strainer than I normally would. Decent caffeine but not jolting. I will buy it again as it’s a good price and organic. I like that it is a co-op.
If you are a tea drinker new to loose leaf tea or a seasoned pro, you will love this tea. Many common bags are blends of orange pekoe/black tea. Irish Breakfast is just a small step above, with Assam tea lending a slightly malty, more "tea" flavor and color. Its perfect if you like milk/sugar without going bitter. It sits flavorwise midway between English and Scottish breakfast teas. Frontier is one of my go to brands for quality, consistency and variety, as is proven by this tea.
This tea tastes bold and crisp when turned into iced tea! I have this available as iced tea on a daily basis! It is also nice as a cup of hot tea as well. It is important that tea is an organic to maximize benefits and have pesticide sprays.
The quality of this organic tea is excellent. The packaging is large and designed for long-term use. This tea has a balanced and rich flavor.
Nice product I really like it. Good quality and size.
Right now, it's my favorite. It's more gentle, not as strong as others from the same line, but actually even more pleasant.
I tried this tea for a change and I prefer the taste to English Breakfast tea. Frontier products come in foil packages which ensure freshness. Loose leaf tea is much cheaper than using tea bags and you can adjust the amount per cup.
