“One of the first fine teas I ever bought was Harney and Sons Royal English Breakfast in the Historic Royal Palaces tin at Barnes and Noble. My youngest daughter really loved it and I bought it...” Read full tasting note
“This is a good blend. Not as hearty as some breakfast blends, but deep red, smooth and hearty enough. I have put this in my cart several times with my Harney orders and always changed my mind. Add...” Read full tasting note
“Backlog: When I read the name of this tea, my immediate thought was “Oolong” (Big Red Robe) But this is a pleasant black tea. And pleasant is the word for this tea. It isn’t particularly bold or...” Read full tasting note
“Of the Harney blends I tried this week, this was by the far the mellowest; I suppose it’s appropriate it’s the last one. It has a rather thick mouthfeel, but it’s pretty silky. Color in the cup...” Read full tasting note
A blend of two superb teas, Big Red Sun is the perfect way to greet the sun every morning and welcome a new day. We’ve combined Kenya Milima’s golden tips and bold Ceylon leaves from Kenilworth Estates to create a brew that’s full-bodied but mellow and smooth. Add a drizzle of honey if you take your tea sweet, or enjoy the nuanced flavors on their own. A wonderful way to wake up, with each cup more satisfying than the last.
One of the classic BLT blends (British Legacy Teas) is the marriage of Ceylon and India to make a strong tea that can handle milk and sugar. This version creatively recombines to be the tea of Ceylon and Kenya. The Kenyan style of tea-making resembles the Indian tea used in that blend. It makes any time that you see the Big Red Sun rise a very pleasant time!

Ooh, this sounds like a good one! I like their Ceylon/Assam combination tea, so I bet I’d enjoy this one as well!
It’s a great combination! I have also heard that their Royal English Breakfast is basically the same as this tea, and might be easier to find at some locations if not ordering online.
Awesome, thanks! I’ll look for both, I think they might have that Royal English Breakfast at the grocery store near here!
This is the same as Royal English Breakfast in the Historic Royal Palaces tin that they sell at Barnes and Noble! I buy it loose leaf as Big Red Sun. My daughter loves it.
Nice, thanks! It sounds like I have a few options!
