 Details: The Harneys, being of Irish heritage, did not offer a Scottish tea until now. Our friends at the American-Scottish Foundation asked us to do two teas. Our first attempt was a strong tea. They said it was nice, but to please make it a wee bit stronger. This Scottish Afternoon is lightened slightly by the addition of Darjeeling. 
 Dry Leaves: A mixture of dark brown leaves, the smaller pieces of Assam and Ceylon, and the Assam CTC (cut, tear, curl) make for a stronger tea. Also, there are the green flecks of broken Darjeeling.
 Liquor: This tea brews a medium brown, slightly lighter than Scottish Morn.
 Aroma: The slight aromas that drift upwards are muffled malt and citrus.
 Flavors: Strong and simple, this tea is meant to be drunk with milk.
 Caffeine Level: Caffeinated
 Body: Full-bodied. A strong, full body is the purpose of this tea, and it delivers. However, the Darjeeling lightens the tea ever so slightly.
 Brewing Time: 5 minutes
 Brewing Temp: 212º
