FRENCH BREAKFAST

I like French Breakfast's balance of brisk and smooth, caffeine and mellow, individual virtue and community cooperation. It is an excellent partner to a good honey and milk. The English Breakfast is good, too, but a bit more of the old British hard edge to my tastes. Sinharaja (with beautifully full leaves) is also one of my favorites that pairs elegantly well with my morning toast and jam.

Now about honey for tea: there is nothing more important to me than THE right honey for my tea. And I've been through many honeys with my tea, intentionally and (yo, Starbucks) unintentionally. A sympatico pairing of honey and tea is a divine delight, like Ella singin' with Louis, grooving me effortlessly through my saddlin' up for the day. No better way to wake up.
In California, for years my favorite tea honey was Gipson's Golden Starthistle honey. Since moving to Iowa, I've been amazed to find that almost any light Iowa honey I've tried so far has a well-mannered and delicately floral quality that is perfectly in harmony with Golden Moon's excellent varieties of morning teas. The famous Midwest "nice" seems to apply to the bees here as well as the people.

Golden Moon's French Breakfast Tea, like their other fine offerings, is a lovely drink to start the day. Fresh, crisp, and delicious!

I have purchased many different flavors of tea from Golden Moon & French breakfast is my favorite. This is a tea I will order again before I run out.

This is one of my favourite every day teas. Very nicely balanced.

This tea is a really nice way to get that little extra bit of caffeine in the morning in a smooth and delicious way, and the flavor lasts well into a 2nd steep.

I've tried a few black teas and this one is the best so far. I will definitely order this one again.

Between the two I prefer the Keemun which is gentler - the French Breakfast tea is *powerful* stuff. Having been a heavy tea drinker for years I have found the loose leaf French Breakfast to be uber caffeinated and strong stuff. Now that I've tried the Keemun I prefer it - in comparison the French Breakfast feels a bit overpowering but it's absolutely seventy times better than anything I've had in tea bag form. Thanks Golden Moon!

French Breakfast tea is simply amazing, very smooth with great taste and virtually no tannins. My wife and I both love it.

I drink this tea daily iced or hot. Very smooth flavor. The best black tea I have ever tasted. Will not buy another brand.

I dont add any milk or sweetener. I drink it at about 3 in the afternoon usually with a bit of dark chocolate. Delicious!

The French Breakfast tea is smooth and flavorful. It's a wonderful tea at anytime.

French breakfast is my favorite breakfast tea. It is robust, yet doesn’t have too much tannins. It stands up well to milk and sugar while still tasting good straight up.

I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth this tea is for a black tea. It has none of the harshness of some black tea and is nice to drink all day long.

Very mild flavor for a black tea but quite pleasant. Very low astringency and very mellow. Good breakfast tea that won’t assault the senses like some other black teas.

I love this tea all day.

Golden Moon tea has been my go-to special treat to myself. Pls try this and you’ll fall in love too.

I am primarily a green tea drinker but I just love the smooth fresh taste of French Breakfast.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this tea! This is my first time trying French Breakfast Tea. I like a strong tea, as I was a coffee drinker and this tea is smooth and delicious! Thank you Golden Moon for your quality teas. Every tea I have tried from them has been spot on. Now I have a new one to add to the others!

I loved the fresh honey flavor

I am so enjoying this premium breakfast tea! I make a 6-cup pot first thing and enjoy it while getting ready for the day. I will never go back to store-bought teabags, or other online bulk teas.

Such good flavor, even cold. Would be sweet if offered in K-cups.

We're very happy with our purchase, it's a favorite of my wife's

I've always enjoyed English and Irish breakfast teas but had never heard of French. It is now my favorite. While I do enjoy the slight bite of Irish, this French has a smoothness unlike the other two. It tastes like a refined breakfast tea with all the flavor and richness I want in the morning. I prefer it black to taste all those warm nuances.

I have bought this tea multiple times. Always great!

This tea is my very favorite, I have had hundreds of cups of the stuff. Everytime it is smooth as can be with very little, if any, astringent notes. Good in the morning, afternoon, or at night.

Really enjoy this tea. Very rich flavor. And knowing it is grown without pesticides makes it even better

One of the lightest, mildest, yet flavorful teas I have ever had! It's great for those who don't like really strong, black teas, and it doesn't get bitter if you let it steep too long. Definitely does not require milk or sugar. It quickly became a staple in my tea collection and is an excellent choice for regular drinking.

I’m picky about my French breakfast teas - I often find they are overwhelmed by the addition of strong vanilla flavoring. This one is a perfectly balanced tea with a mild flavor. I’ve been drinking it for years and haven’t tired of it!

I recently tried the French Breakfast tea. I use it as a good alternative for my morning tea. It is more mild than many of the other black teas I like but I find it a good change up.

I drink Ice Tea daily year round, and since I tried French Breakfast, it is my go to choice. Holds flavor quite well with a touch of honey. Always refreshing!

Alternate between Super Irish breakfast and French breakfast for breakfast. Perfect in the morning. No milk or sugar required

I am enjoying the tea. It is a very light and refreshing tea. Does not need a lot of sweetner and as usual I love to drink Golden Moon Tea. I haven’t not used milk either. It’s not a bold taste.

Among Golden Moon Tea’s breakfast tea offerings, this one is the most mild. Great taste with a smooth finish. I never add anything to my black tea as I really enjoy the astringency of the tannins. But I feel this is a tea mild enough that most people could enjoy without milk or sugar.

Golden Moon Tea is simply the best!

French breakfast tea is my favorite.

Loved the French roast tea. It was so smooth and lots of flavor

Excellent tea.

This is a smooth, mild, slightly sweet tea. I can enjoy it any time of the day without adding anything.

A really good morning tea, smooth and a little sweet. I brew it dark and drink it with milk in the morning.

This is my favorite black tea, I have it on autoship now. It tastes great!

Full bodied, fragrant, good for mixing with other teas. Holds up to milk well.

Very smooth morning tea. Touch of sweetness and good woodsy flavor. I enjoy it black and first thing in the mornings.

Golden Moon French Breakfast is a fantastic tea for the price. It has complex flavors with just enough malty, sweetness to make a good cup with out sugar or milk. Still, it has enough punch to shine through if sweet and white is your thing. Good all-rounder!

I ordered the small package of this tea to give it a try. It is an excellent addition to my mornings. Very smooth with a very nice aftertaste. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to start the day off right.

I love hot tea and Golden Moon Tea is the best I have ever had! I've ordered teas from all over and have been disappointed many times but NEVER by Golden Moon Teas!! They are always fresh and the leaves are never all broken up...when you brew this tea it is heavenly, beautiful to look at, clean crisp aroma, and taste amazing!

Classic black tea, bold flavor love it ! Great wake me up tea in the morning

My family drinks lots of iced tea, and French Breakfast is our favorite. Smooth flavor. Great with a squeeze of lemon.

I can't say enough about this tea! So unique. I'm addicted! So smooth. I'm going to try it iced too. Just got my second tin.

This tea makes delicious ice tea with a Takeya pitcher.

Highly recommended black tea. Very smooth and flavorful. This tea pairs beautifully with turbinado or Demerara sugar and milk for a comfy hot tea. On hot days, this blend also makes a refreshing iced tea!

This has to be another of my all time favorites.. .. One I will drink daily!!! It is smooth and just delightful. The great price doesn't hurt either!!! I love this tea.

This is the smoothest black tea I've ever had (and that is saying alot!) This is in a class by itself. Even though I do love a strong and robust black tea,this is a lovely milder blend that is sure to satisfy any tea lover. It would be a great beginner's black, altho my tea-obsessed friends and I thoroughly enjoy it too. I enjoy most black tea with a splash of milk, but I never let milk touch a cup of French Breakfast!

Enjoying a cup of French Breakfast tea! Give it a try!

Very smooth and flavorful. A great morning cup of tea!

This tea is simple yet wonderful! The description of "honey" is perfect. I'd almost say fruity. It has a crisp, bold flavor that works perfectly for the morning. And the price can't be beat!

Always consistent, always very good!
We have been drinking Golden Moon teas for years and the quality is always first rate.
Thanks!!!

I needed some jump in the mornings and I wanted my tea to do it. French breakfast is just the ticket. It’s smooth but has a hint of vanilla in it which makes it rich like coffee. Since I dislike coffee this is a great substitute. It doesn’t take much to make a cup so it lasts. Love the company too!

French Breakfast has become our family's new favorite "everyday tea." The flavor is strong and complex.

Very smooth and flavorful. Slightly sweet. Nice tea for a weekend breakfast.

While other Golden Moon Teas have subtle flavors that make them unique, this French Breakfast is smooth, simple, and satisfying paired with milk or black. I would say that as a basic ceylon tea this epitomizes the gold standard.

During the week, I normally drink Golden Moon Lapsang Sochong for it rich smoky aroma and deep rich flavor or Golden Moon Sinharaja for its complex taste. However, on the weekend when I want to cut back to a milder tea, I find that Golden Moon French Breakfast fits the bill nicely. Been buying from Golden Moon for years now and will continue to do so as long as they stay in business.

We've ordered many products from Golden Moon (the Golden Monkey is probably our favorite special occasion tea), and the French Breakfast is our current daily. It's excellent, smooth, well-balanced. We order by the pound.

My new favorite. I recommend trying it

This tea is so smooth going down!!! I don’t add anything to it!! Marvelous with a sweet or savory breakfast. It’s also a wonderful afternoon tea. I highly recommend it!

An excellent tasty everyday tea at a great price.

Been drinking English Breakfast for years with Irish Breakfast when needing a more robust jolt. And like another reviewer, I had never heard of French Breakfast. This tea is really good. Perfect for a slower start on a weekend morning. I usually drink this kind of tea with cream an sugar. Lovely. Have been making a big pot and drinking all day.

French breakfast tea is one of my favorite tea to drink smooth and delicious

My spouse is the tea drinker and has been a fan of French Breakfast tea for at least 8 years. We've gifted samples of this tea to many friends who are now enjoying the tea.

This is such a smooth Ceylon tea. It is now become one of my regular teas I will always have on hand. Drink anytime if day.

I love this tea. Very smooth with a touch of sweetness. Great tea for first thing in the morning!

I had never heard of French Breakfast before so decided to give it a try. It was a great price to try something new. Its not my favorite, its just not strong enough for me. I have tried using more tea and steeping longer. No reflection on Golden Moon, its just not my cup of tea. LOL

I absolutely love this tea! The delicate, dark, and smooth flavor really wakes me up nicely in the morning. I would recommend this tea to anyone who likes a good black tea.

I had never tried loose leaf tea nor black tea but this tastes great.

French Breakfast tea is smooth and delicious!! So glad I tried it!

I'm a huge fan of breakfast tea, with Irish always having been my favorite - until I found Golden Moon's "French Breakfast" tea. My best description is that's it's smoother, and just a touch lighter (in taste), than other breakfast teas. It's simply delicious! Try it and see!

I have a weird need to try all the breakfast teas (I've tried American, Canadian, Irish, Scottish, English, and Chinese). This is the first time I heard of French Breakfast tea so I was all over it and it is great! Not as intense as Scottish or Canadian, more in line with English, Irish and Chinese.

The French Breakfast ceylon tea is fragrant, smooth, and tasty. I'm always surprised at how quickly my cup gets empty!

The French breakfast is a very smooth easy to drink tea. My favorite breakfast tea.

Love this tea! One of my many favorites from Golden Moon. I drink it hot and it makes perfect iced tea.

I am so glad I found Golden Moon Teas. The flavors are amazing. I love Tippy Earl Grey and French Breakfast. The Jasmine is light and a little sweet. Excellent teas-have to try them all!

I am enjoying Golden Moon Teas. I like the French Breakfast tea. I have purchased so many different kinds of Golden Moon Teas. It is hard for me to decide which tea to drink.

Good tea a bit reminiscent of Golden Assam; but my favorite is still Tippy Earl Grey

Veddy goody frenchy brekky tea!
Cheers

I have been purchasing this particular product from Golden Moon for several years. I favor French Breakfast tea as i I find it is more delicate in flavor than English Breakfast tea.
I had to give up coffee and this is a most acceptable and enjoyable replacement.
