Adventures in Tea: Irish Breakfast

Irish breakfast tea from VT Tea and Trading Co is bin #263 in City Market's bulk section.  The Wikipedia page says it's described as having a malty aroma; in the batch I drank, it was almost milky, as if it had been pre-added.  I remember that when I first tried Irish Breakfast (probably Twinings?) many years ago, it was too strong and bitter for my taste (I didn't then, and still don't, like to put milk or sugar in my tea), but now I quite like it.  And, like the Wikipedia page suggests, it's good at all hours of the day.
