Big Sky Black is a Scottish Breakfast blend, and our boldest breakfast tea. Pushing up to the brink of astringency, without crossing over to bitterness. Notes of dried fruit and leather, with a whisp of smoke hover on the edge. If this tea doesn't wake you up, then we're not sure what will.

This Scottish Breakfast blend pays tribute to everyone who works their tail off to make ends meet. Most folks who grew up in the Big Sky State (Montana) (including many of our staff) learn hard work as a matter of course, whether it's chores on the ranch, long days in the woods, or weary nights waiting tables. We're proud of our work ethic. But we also don't mind a strong shot of something tasty as a pick-me-up. That's where Big Sky Black Scottish Breakfast comes in.

Think of a Charlie M. Russell painting: you see the energy and vigor of the American West—but if you stick with the image, you'll find layers of color and beauty that you didn't notice at first glance. We think good tea should do both: get the job done, and also satisfy on a deeper level.

Thank you for taking us along for the ride.

A made in Montana tea.

Miles Y. ★★★★★

I was worried a Scottish breakfast would be too harsh, but this one stops just short of bitter. That dried fruit and leather thing really comes through, and it takes milk without going flat.

Sebastian ★★★★★

This is my third tin in a row — I keep coming back because it’s the only breakfast tea that stays rich and malty even after three minutes of steeping. The dried fruit sweetness balances the edge so I don’t need milk, which is rare for a blend this bold.

Steven U. ★★★★★

The leather note is surprisingly smooth and adds a nice depth—it's bold but never harsh, even without milk. I’ve been drinking it black every morning for a week and it holds up perfectly over the three-minute steep.
