Superfine Tan Yang Gong Fu Black Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Black Tea – Region: Fu'an, Fujian, China73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 19th, 2013
I enjoyed this tea, and thought it very high-quality, but it was too smooth or mellow for my tastes, and I was never able to get a sufficiently strong cup out of it. Its flavor profile was similar to bai hao oolong (with a different aroma), and I find that tea too smooth for me.
Dry leaf consists almost exclusively...
Darjeeling Estate Organic Black Tea from Wegmans

I like this tea. It smells kind of smoky. The flavor was a little bland when I first tried it, but started tasting more flavorful as I was drinking the cup. I added cream and sugar.

This tea is pretty good. It's not very interesting or notable. I added cream and sugar.

Feb. 17th, 2013
When I first wake up, I don't have it in me to be a tea snob, carefully sniffing out the grassy hay notes in obscure Chinese teas. It's not what I crave at that hour, and the subtlety would be lost on me anyway.
So, with breakfast I usually like some kind of milky, sweetened, very strong black tea. A breakfast blend...

The aroma is kind of unpleasantly sweet, but the flavor is really good. It's crisp, and not too bitter. I added cream and sugar.

Feb. 10th, 2013
Having not drunk Typhoo for some time, recent experiences with it suggest it is unlikely to become a regular purchase. Firmly at the budget end of branded tea, a spectacular deal saw us buy some.
At first sight, things appeared promising: the somewhat nondescript aroma forgotten as a good dark colour appeared that ...
Organic Superfine Keemun Fragrant Black Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Keemun – Region: Huangshan, Anhui, China91 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 9th, 2013
I find it interesting how different people I have given this tea to have perceived it differently. I thought it a top-notch tea, but I also found that it doesn't have as much of a universal appeal as some high-quality teas.
Dry leaf is pleasingly aromatic, and shares a lot of qualities in common with top-quality bl...

Feb. 9th, 2013
I thought this tea was good for a basic black. The flavor wasn't as complex as the description suggests. I noticed more of a smokey taste than floral and fruity undertones. I enjoyed this tea overall, but I probably wouldn't buy it on my own for its listed price.

Greenfield Estate Ceylon Black Tea from Arbor Teas

Feb. 2nd, 2013
Yet another outstanding black tea from Arbor Teas! My initial reaction of "this is another good black tea, not the best, but really good" changed about 3/4 of the way through my cup! While this tea didn't pack as much of a punch as the Assam Black, I loved the subtle and smooth flavor and fully appreciated the velvet...

This has to be one of the best black teas that I've had so far! The tea has a smokey smell and the flavor is rich and complex, much more so than an average black tea - I look forward to having it again soon :)

This tea had a very pleasant-smelling dry leaf, but I could not produce a satisfactory cup by brewing it: it struck me as weak. Dry leaf is relatively finely broken, but smells very pleasing, with hints of wintergreen.
I used a lot of leaf, but in spite of that, upon brewing, this tea came out quite weak. Aroma of...

This tea is interesting. I like it. It has an aftertaste that I don't quite know how to describe, but it's not bitter. It tastes rich, a little like bread or something. I added cream and sugar.

Jan. 31st, 2013
I found this to be an above-average black tea in tea bags, but not good enough to justify the price. These sachets are very expensive, almost $10 for only 15. This places them in the same price range with Two Leaves and a Bud, which I prefer.
Aroma is not terribly complex: malty and robust, but not as strong relat...
Black Tea from Salada
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
Jan. 30th, 2013
Salada's original blend appears to be weak to us, as though they put less tea in the bags. We used it for years and years. But it no longer has a robust flavor or aroma in your cup, let alone a second cup. While visiting Canada recently we affirmed this criticism while enjoying Canada's version of a cup of tea. Up...

I was really intrigued and impressed by this tea. It's the first Golden Monkey I've sampled, and it's set the bar pretty high for future sampling.
Dry leaf is very aromatic, and smells strongly and distinctly of whole grain rye and caraway. Slightly suggestive of Yunnan Gold teas, which have a similar appearance, ...

This tea has a sweet aroma. It reminded me of olives at one point. I really like the flavor. It's full, rich, and interesting. I added cream and sugar.

I enjoyed this in a Barnes and Noble cafe. Compared to Tazo Awake, I prefer this tea pretty solidly. It's perhaps a bit mellower, but I think more complex and smoother.
This was a solid black breakfast tea. It didn't quite scream "English" the way some English Breakfast blends did, but it did strike me as a typic...

I absolutely love this tea!!! It has a bold strong flavor, great aroma, and is totally addicting.....The morning that I skip it for whatever reason is not a right start of the day.

Jan. 16th, 2013
It would have been easy for me to overlook this tea if I had only brewed it once. Smooth and light, this tea has a classic high-grown character. But it took multiple steepings and some experimentation to discover how good this tea was at producing multiple cups. Among the best at making multiple infusions of any bla...
