If you like your tea strong and no-nonsense, Irish breakfast tea is about to become your new favourite. Known for its rich, malty taste and full-bodied brew, it’s the perfect way to kick-start your day — or power through the afternoon.
But here’s what most people really want to know: what’s the caffeine like?
Compared to other black teas, Irish breakfast tea caffeine levels tend to be on the higher side. It’s typically blended with Assam and other robust leaves, which naturally pack more punch. That means a stronger energy boost without the jitters of coffee — ideal for morning routines or those “two-cup” kind of days.
At British Tea Centre, our Irish breakfast and afternoon blends are carefully sourced and expertly balanced. Whether you drink it with milk (like a proper Irish cuppa) or enjoy it straight, you’ll get a bold, satisfying taste that holds up to anything on your to-do list.
Looking for a tea that actually feels like it’s doing something? This is it.
