Category: CLASSIC BLACK TEAS

Tasting Notes: malty, hearty, earthy

Description:  A strong breakfast blend that is full-bodied and malty with notes of earth, peat moss, and trace hints of smoke. A distinctive and rich tea that we named in honor of the rich history of Long Island's Gold Coast Era.  This tea works well straight up or with milk, sugar, or honey. 

Gold Coast is a bold black tea that's similar to our Scottish Breakfast but with more heaviness and earthiness. A popular black tea that will appeal to people who enjoy a malty and earthy full-bodied black tea. Each sip reveals a round mouth-feel, earthy heaviness, and a faint smokey finish. Notes of black pepper and honey linger. One of our most popular breakfast-style black teas! 

Ingredients: blend of black teas from India and China

Steep Directions: steep 1 heaping teaspoon of tea per 8 oz boiling water, 205-212°F, for 3-5 minutes

James ★★★★★

This one's my daily driver now—that malty, hearty body holds up perfectly against a splash of milk, and the faint smoky edge keeps it interesting without going overboard. Brews up a deep, dark cup that actually tastes as strong as it smells.

Sofia ★★★★★

The earthy, peaty note in this one is what sold me—it's genuinely robust without turning bitter, even with a splash of milk. I've been reaching for it every morning since the bag arrived. It brews up a deep, satisfying cup that holds its own against any hearty breakfast spread.

Steven ★★★★★

That malty, full-bodied character makes it my go-to first thing in the morning. It’s got that hearty, earthy depth that stands up to milk without losing its bite, and the faint smoky trace lingers just long enough. I’ve already reordered twice.
