Very smooth but not strong enough for breakfast

As an exclusive tea drinker I prefer a stronger breakfast tea when I get to work. Tazo English Breakfast used to be my go to but recently I have noticed a strong bitterness that makes it no longer appealing to me. I have switched to Twinings Irish Breakfast almost exclusively and very much enjoy that for my morning cup. I decided to try all the black breakfast teas Keurig offers so I could chose my favorite to keep on hand. To put my review in context and equally compare the offerings I will detail how I prepare my tea (right or wong) since you may do it differently. I have the K-Classic machine and use a 16 oz mug and add heavy cream (1-2 ozs) and very little sugar (a sprinkle of a sugar packet). I use one pod and run it through first on the medium (8 oz.) setting, open the lid and run a second time through on the small (6 oz.) setting which fills my cup to the top. I find this Bigelow English breakfast to be very smooth, not bitter but not quite strong enough for breakfast. I think it will be great after lunch or as an afternoon pick me up. So in trying this I can say for me I like a stronger cup in the morning but this will do nicely in the afternoon and I will continue to keep some on hand for that reason. If you only like strong tea then you may want to skip this one.
