Indonesian Tea from Mark T. Wendell
Style: Black Tea – Region: West Java, Indonesia87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 19th, 2012
This is dark and earthy. It's less brisk than Indian or Sri Lankan teas, but not sweet either. As is usually the case with this merchant, the quality for the money is wonderful. I don't want this tea every day, but it is a pleasant change from routine. Good stuff!

Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 19th, 2012
For me this is much less interesting than Barry's Gold Blend. Perhaps because I drink my tea clear, I find this more astringent version to less palatable. The malt is there, but also a bitterness I don't really enjoy.

This Ceylon is full of flavor. It is an excellent value for the money and I could happily drink this daily. In fact, I plan on ordering a pound of the damn stuff next time around. This tea makes me grin!

Style: Black Tea – Region: Yunnan, China87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 19th, 2012
A nice, sweet, dark Yunnan. This is not at all astringent. To add milk or sugar would be silly. If you drink a lot of black tea, this can be an enjoyable break from the more brisk, south Asian tea styles.

Dec. 19th, 2012
As tea in a tea bag goes, this is very good stuff. The flavor is distinctive and comforting. I think I could easily pick this one out in a blind tasting with other Irish/Brittish brands. A good tea to have on hand.

This tea has a rich, smoky aroma. The flavor is crisp. I really like it. It's a little bitter if brewed too long. I added cream and sugar.

Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 2nd, 2012
After being relatively impressed with Yorkshire Tea's tea bags, I was let down when I tried their loose-leaf. It tasted really similar, which was good, but it was not markedly better!
The aroma is rich and malty, and there is a faint hint of wintergreen in the aroma as well. Smoother than average for a tea of this...
Yunnan Gold (Golden Yunnan) from Adagio Teas
Style: Yunnan Gold – Region: Yunnan, China73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 2nd, 2012
The aroma is very light and floral and the taste matches! I find the taste to be a mix of floral and citrus with a very mild tea flavor. Very subtle and enjoyable!
I only got a sample if this tea but definitely plan on getting more from Agagio as it might be my favorite of their teas
Irish Breakfast from Bewley's Coffee and Tea Company

was given a tin of this as a gift by a friend who knows my tea-drinking habits very well ;) the tin has been empty for quite a long time now (it's too cute to toss out) and it still smells of tea. absolutely the best irish breakfast i have ever tried. was very sorry to see it go!

smells like heaven. i have tried my share of Irish Breakfasts, it's one of my favorite kinds of tea. this is up there with the best. it's hard to stop at one cup, even on days when i've sworn to myself to tone down the caffiene! more than satisfies the craving i often have for a nice, solid cup of tea.

Style: Golden Monkey – Region: Fujian, China93 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 24th, 2012
Rich full body black tea low in tannins and found the tea needed very little sugar on its own. Holds well if cream is added without being watery and flavorless. I found it is delicious paired with Teavana Aztec Fire or Caramel Almond Biscotti

Style: Panyang Congou – Region: Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 20th, 2012
Wiry leaf has a good amount of golden tip. I was surprised by the dark color of the liquor produced by these light golden leaves. The picture Harney provided looks a bit deceptive--I found it brews much darker.
Aroma is intensely cocoa-ey and chocolatey. Almost tastes like a cup of unsweetened cocoa. Reminiscent...
Famous Edinburgh from Brodies
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 19th, 2012
A quite balanced black tea with a dark, almost slightly musty and round flavour. Aroma is mildly earthy and sweet. A good pick-up in the morning or after lunch, but a bit too strong for drinking in the evening.

Style: Black Tea – Region: Rwanda67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 16th, 2012
I thought this tea was a good basic black, and it is pretty inexpensive too! I drank it straight without cream or sugar and didn't find it too strong (although I do like a good cup of strong black tea so my tastes may be different from some!). I'd be more apt to keep this tea around as a basic black over Lipton, and ...

Nov. 15th, 2012
Brews a very dark color, but flavor is surprisingly light (although still stronger than most light-colored teas). Tastes a lot more like high-grown Ceylon tea than like most Assam.
Aroma suggestive of spices and sweet rice, with quite a strong wood presence (like oak and cedar, unlike most teas). Peppery and punge...
Golden Monkey (Jin Hou) from Silk Road Teas
Style: Golden Monkey – Region: Fujian, China70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 15th, 2012
Not as good as the offer carried by SpecialTeas but not a bad substitute. Far cheaper than TeaVana. Not quite as full-bodied as S.T.'s but similar in the cocoa\chocolaty flavor.

Love this tea. Went to Tanzania for one month and drank only this tea.
I got some tea bag to bring home but I'm running out :(
Irish Breakfast from Fortnum & Mason

While this is not my favorite selection of the F&M line. It's a fairly good quality cup. R&M'S Royal Blend, Celebration, and Queen Anne are fabulously unforgetable teas.

Oct. 20th, 2012
I drink 4 to 5 cups of tea daily. Classic Tetley is a preferred staple in my diet. I occasionally enjoy flavoured teas, but Tetley is a decent cup and at the best price. Money saved looks better on my mortgage! Indeed simple, but dearly missed when I don't have access to it.

I enjoy this tea. Let it steep as long as you like. The flavor is good at any point in time! I like it much more than the OPA

Oct. 13th, 2012
The first time I brewed this tea, it had a dry aroma, but I liked it. Although it was a bit bitter, it was strong and full-bodied. The second infusion had a more flavorful and interesting aroma, and was less bitter, but still strong. I liked it better. I added cream and sugar.
