I prefer this brand to PG Tips (though I will still drink the latter without a doubt). Strong, filling and tasty with milk and sugar.

A trip to London introduced me to this brand. I must say I enjoy the black tea it offers. I prefer with milk and sugar. Very affordable to the average tea drinker.

Irish Breakfast from Adagio Teas
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
Rather mild. Fruity smell. Tastes woody, earthy, maybe a bit salty. Moderately astringent. I found it energizing.
I've tried the two Adagio teas that this is apparently a blend of, but this tastes totally different from either.
Russian Country from Harney and Sons
Style: Russian Caravan – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
I like smoked paprika (keep the sweet kind away from me.) I like smoked brisket. I like campfires. I like tea.
I thought I'd like Lapsang. But it was just too smoky. A co-worker and tea genius made some for me and I tried it but then yelped, turned tail, and felt a deep shame.
So I had a lot on the line when I t...
London Cuppa Tea Bags from The London Cuppa
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 19th, 2015
This is the only tea that people have tasted and asked me what brand it is, because they liked it so much. Even at work, where we had a big tea round where our staples were Yorkshire and Twinings, so the bar was set fairly high already. I am a big fan of Assam and Kenya teas. As one friend said to me, "it tastes lik...

Irish Breakfast from Bewley's Coffee and Tea Company
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 17th, 2015
This is a STRONG black tea - that stands up well to sweetener and/or milk (I never put milk nor cream in tea but if you do this is a good one). Brews up DARK in seconds. You can easily get 2-3 infusions from a bag. May no longer be available?
Not a holy grail - but a solid, caffeinated "Breakfast-style" tea that ...
Yorkshire Gold from Yorkshire Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 16th, 2015
Love this tea - although I prefer waking to coffee, happy with this tea also, and its great in the afternoon. Bought this in England, though I'm told its available for a premium at some speciality stores. Great with toast and marmalade or banana bread. Already looking forward to next cup.

Harrods English Breakfast Tea from Harrods
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 16th, 2015
We were in London, at Harrods, so had to buy something. The English Breakfast tea is decent and comes in a nice tea can. Overpriced by our standards (due to strong GBPound). But other than the novelty of Harrods, for a good cuppa I'm happy with many of the Taylors of Harrogate brands.

Royal Blend from Fortnum & Mason
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 20th, 2015
Fortnum & Mason teas always bring back good memories of trips to London with my father years ago. Royal Blend is a strong one - less strong than, say, Irish Breakfast, but a black tea blend for sure with a tannic aroma and a pleasant "wake up" bite. I like this tea very much and it stands up to milk or cream & sugar ...

English Breakfast from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 21st, 2015
Served at Notting Hill coffee shop in Lewes, DE.
An outstanding English Breakfast blend: robust and strong, with a rich and complex aroma. The aroma is slightly malty, and has noticeable wintergreen notes.
Flavor is very bold and rich; flavor is both bitter and savory, and astringency is fairly strong; be carefu...

Estate Blend Tea from Bromley Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 11th, 2015
I would not say this is the best tea I have ever tasted but I will say it is the best value for a good tasting tea I have come across. I have been drinking this tea for a few years now because Fortnum and Mason Royal Blend got too expensive for me. I let my tea bags steep for 10 minutes to get the most out of them and ...

Everyday I drink 2-3 bags, tasted bland and flavorless, but not bad, to say. so probably not my cup of good tea.

TB05: Mincing Lane Breakfast Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 8th, 2015
Another outstanding and powerful black tea blend from Upton. This was also one of my all-time favorite blends from Upton.
The dry leaf of this blend, which consists of quite large pieces of leaf, has a strong and wonderful aroma, lightly smoky, spicy, and fruity, with floral hints, suggesting rose.
Flavor is bri...
River Shannon Breakfast Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend88 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 30th, 2015
A classic, yet exemplary Irish Breakfast tea: true to the style, but also top-quality. My favorite Irish Breakfast tea yet.
Dry leaf is dark and smell pleasant, fruity (like dried fruit), malty, and slightly spicy.
The brewed cup is strong and smells surprisingly much of wintergreen, which I love. There are als...
Scottish Breakfast Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Scottish Breakfast – Region: Blend91 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 29th, 2015
This was an absolutely delightful tea that was definitely my favorite blend from Upton and one of my favorites among all black tea blends. The perfect balance of strength and smoothness.
Dry leaf is finely broken but has a very pleasant aroma, and quite complex. There are notes of malt and fruit, especially the fr...
Quality Blend Tea - Olde McCormick Tea House from McCormick
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 20th, 2015
I grew up on this tea. It's wonderful, nothing else comes close. We used it for hot tea in the winter and iced tea in the summer. Never bitter. I used to drink 4 - 5 cups of tea a day. Since it has become almost impossible to find, I've given up drinking tea.

East Frisian TGFOP from Upton Tea Imports
Style: East Frisian Tea (Ostfriesentee) – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 14th, 2015
An excellent blend for an excellent price, that I can see pleasing both connoisseurs and lovers of strong black teas. Potent but smooth and also complex.
Dry leaf, which is intact and wiry, has a very pleasing aroma with strong vegetal notes.
Upon brewing, produces a dark, rich, but mellow cup which reminds me a...
Bond Street English Breakfast Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 31st, 2015
A classic, prototypical English Breakfast tea of average quality. Goes well with milk and probably better suited to people who (unlike me) drink their tea with milk.
A CTC (broken, mechanically-processed) tea; the dry leaf isn't terribly aromatic, but has a pleasant slightly malty aroma.
Produces a very dark cup...
PG Tips Pyramid bags from PG Tips
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 28th, 2015
PG Tips is a reasonable British black tea blend. It is one of my "old standbys, " and I particularly like that PG Tips prides itself on ethics.

British Blend - Premium Black Tea from Tetley Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 28th, 2015
If you are accustomed to PG Tips, Twinings, or Barry's, then, to you, this tea should not taste bad. If you are used to anything better than the aforementioned, then Tetley British Blend will probably still work in a pinch. You may want to let it steep longer than what you are used to with stronger teas. I let it stee...

Baker Street Afternoon Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Russian Caravan – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 19th, 2015
The dry leaf of this just smells like Lapsang Souchong. It also has an ununusual, hetereogeneous shape. One tea, presumably the souchong, has very long, wiry leaves, whereas the others are much shorter. This makes me wonder if the leaves would separate if stored in a large container and shaken around enough.

Okay tea. Pretty normal English Breakfast. I have loose leaf English Breakfast, not tea bag, and it's just okay. Not much flavor.

Organic Black Tea from Equal Exchange
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 9th, 2015
Quite good for a flat tea bag.
Brews up a very dark, opaque liquor. Malty aroma, a lot like an Assam or Irish Breakfast blend. Bold flavor, moderate astringency but still smoother than average for a tea bag of this strength.
I only steeped once, just under 3 minutes, and it produced good results. The tea was s...
PG Tips Pyramid bags from PG Tips

Jan. 29th, 2015
It's my staple "tea diet" in the UK and the "office brew" as well so you could say I almost exist on this. Makes a lovely cuppa, a dash of milk and a spoon of sugar - perfect. Just right after a long drive into the office.
