The secret lies in when that removal happens. These leaves are decaffeinated at the green leaf stage — before withering, before rolling, before any oxidation takes place — which means the full black tea character develops afterwards, just as it would in any high quality Irish breakfast blend. The result is a cup that genuinely tastes like Irish breakfast tea: malty, full-bodied, gold-red in the cup, and entirely capable of standing up to a good splash of milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIrish breakfast tea has a long and well-loved history, rooted in the bold, high-grown Assam teas that became synonymous with Irish tea culture from the mid-nineteenth century onwards. Always defined by its strength and its willingness to be the anchor of the day, the Irish breakfast style is notably more malty and full-bodied than its English counterpart — a reflection of the Assam-forward blending approach that Irish tea drinkers have favoured for generations. Decaffeinating a blend of this character without stripping the life from it is no small challenge, and treating the leaf before processing is the approach most likely to preserve what makes the blend worth drinking in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eEach serving comes in a roomy biodegradable pyramid bag — a considered choice that gives the leaf space to fully open and infuse properly, rather than confining it in a flat bag where flavour can only do so much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSince 2008, High Teas London has been one of the country's leading independent tea specialists. With one of the largest collections in the country — over 350 teas and infusions — we believe that choosing to reduce your caffeine intake should never mean settling for less in the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Decaffeinated black tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrewing Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use freshly boiled water and allow the pyramid bag to sit for 3 to 4 minutes, depending on how strong you prefer your cup. The generous size of the pyramid bag is there for a reason — give it the full time to work, and resist the temptation to squeeze the bag when you remove it, as this can release tannins and tip the cup towards bitterness. This is a tea built to take milk, and it does so beautifully: add a splash after the bag is removed for a rounded, malty brew. If you prefer your tea black, a slightly shorter steep of around 3 minutes will keep it smooth and full-flavoured without any edge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Metro","offers":[{"title":"20 pyramids","offer_id":7724993904676,"sku":"IRPY-20-M175","price":8.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 pyramids","offer_id":41251200270514,"sku":"IRPY-60-M175","price":21.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 pyramids gift","offer_id":41251204300978,"sku":"IRPY-20g-M175","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"40 pyramids gift","offer_id":41251207610546,"sku":"IRPY-40g-M175","price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/products\/IrishbreakfastdecafS.jpg?v=1778163772","url":"https:\/\/highteas.co.uk\/products\/decaf-irish-breakfast-tea-pyramid-bags","provider":"High Teas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
