Barry's Master Blend is the boldest tea in the Barry's range, a step above Gold and the one Barry's make for serious tea drinkers. Sourced from ten of the finest tea gardens in India, Rwanda, and Kenya, it is considered one of the finest blended teas in Europe. Powerful, distinctive, and full-bodied. If you take your tea seriously, this is where Barry's gets serious too. If you enjoy Barry's Master Blend, our Scotch and Abram's Crown Jewel is our take on that same bold, full-bodied character - Darjeeling, Assam, and Ceylon blended for the tea drinker who wants depth and complexity in every cup. Teabags are fully biodegradable. 50% Rainforest Alliance Certified. How to brew the perfect cup Use freshly boiled water, not left to cool. Steep for 3 to 4 minutes. Don't over brew. Holds up well to milk but worth trying black first. One bag is enough. This is a strong tea. How does it compare? Stronger than Barry's Gold Blend Similar to Bewley's Irish Breakfast Similar to Thompson's Irish Breakfast The strongest tea in the Barry's range and one of the most robust Irish teas we carry. If you drink Bewley's Irish Breakfast or Thompson's Irish Breakfast regularly, Master Blend sits in the same territory. Once you go here it is hard to go back.
