Darjeeling-Ceylon Iced Tea Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 18th, 2019
For a budget priced tea, I am very happy with this. Reasonably robust and flavorful, this shines on ice but is good hot too. Blends well with citrus and sugar. This is also an excellent choice for Indian masala chai. A very versatile and well priced tea. I've ordered it several times now.

This tea gets a B+ on quality and a C- on marketing and presentation. The name suggests it is a Darjeeling, but the description (and flavor) betrays that it is actually a blend of a Darjeeling and a Ceylon. I think this is a borderline shady marketing practice: Darjeeling is obviously the more prestigious name, so blen...

An above-average, basic black tea in a tea bag.
I've tried the loose-leaf version of this tea, and gave it a very good review, but I only had the opportunity to try the tea bag recently, when I stopped at a rest stop on the Ohio turnpike and ordered a cup of tea at a Gloria Jean's coffee stand.
First of all, I wa...

I had this in a bag last night at Disney Hall. It's one of the best bag teas I've had. Nice malty taste, nothing bitter about it. I'll have to try the loose version.

For a food-service tea, this seemed slightly above average...I've had worse, but wouldn't seek it out for home consumption. This is one that, if you spot it in a motel or (as I did) receive it as "hot tea" in a breakfast cafe off I-70 in Kansas, can be consumed safely and without obvious problems. I realize that's no...

This tea came from a chain motel in the Nebraska Panhandle. I rather enjoyed it on their breakfast area the morning I first chugged a cup, and the water is decent in the town; still, I took another bag home to review after brewing it up on my own well water. Before the pour, I did the usual dry-bag sniff. The aroma ...

This is a solid breakfast tea. I’m often not into plain black teas — especially of the “breakfast” variety. They often come off as too bitter or astringent. This tea, however, is smooth with a nice complexity. I like it a bit more than Adagio’s Irish breakfast. As of this review, I’ve never tried their Engl...

I haven’t tried a lot of Irish breakfast teas, but I like this one. It has a very smooth quality. It’s caffeine isn’t actually too intense, and it doesn’t turn bitter easily the way some black teas can. This is a solid breakfast tea, I think. :-)

I got a cup of this at a gas station, surprisingly. I think it's better than the average English Breakfast, though I'm comparing it to the common bagged English Breakfast blends like Twinings because I have never bought it loose leaf. It mostly tasted like Assam to me, with the hint of a bright honey flavor being the o...

It's alright! Not as good as their regular tea! It didn't produce a particularly glimmering, sparkly effect, as I was expecting. Wasn't too happy about that. I practically threw my pot on the floor. But I drank it. And it was alright. There wasn't no gold in this tea...

Good stuff, mate! You Brits got some good OLLLLLLLLE tea!! This tea is good for sweet tea, or with just a little milk. This is better than their Yorkshire Gold, strangely. Bedtime Brew is a good version, as well.

I'm not much for tea reviewing (and I don't really care about aroma in a tea?) but this one is a favorite of mine. To my taste this is slightly weaker Yorkshire Gold perfect for the mid-day.

I find this to be a bit of a fascinating tea. Unlike H&S's other English Breakfast offerings (that I'm aware of), it's not a full-leaf tea. Instead, it comes in what looks to be small granule-like pieces. Unlike fannings, these look to be deliberately ground, and it is surely ground finely - I wouldn't suggest using me...

Now, I'm biased. I love me some Lapsang Souchong, which as I gather, is relatively unusual. I love it so much that I'll drink it straight. I love the woodiness of it, and the campfire-like smell to it.
Russian Country, however, is a step up. While it doesn't have as much of that lovely flavour profile of a LS, it's ...
British Blend - Premium Black Tea from Tetley Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 26th, 2018
My favorite British Blend black tea (sorry PG Tips). A perfect tea to give you a small caffeine boost that won't keep you up all night. A strong black tea full of flavor that brews in seconds.
I'll give you my own recipe for making this tea great: Brew kettle water to 190. As water is brewing, add tea bag to the bo...
Black Label Breakfast Fannings from Upton Tea Imports

Mine was called Breakfast Blend (not Breakfast Fannings.) This is a solid breakfast tea, with some metallic tannins and a cereal-like taste. Very finely ground, and similar to traditional Irish and English breakfast teas.

I was not impressed with this. I think I prefer Lipton even, and that says a lot because I am not exactly a fan of Lipton or any of these mass-produced, low-quality tea bags.
Thank you to my friend Sarah for letting me try this!
Weak aroma, only slightly malty, but there's a hint of a sort of unpleasant, fishy ar...
The Tasty Decaf from PG Tips

This tea has recently changed both it's box, the amount contained and the tea blend, as it has added a flavouring, although it does not say what..
It now has only 70 bags instead of 80. The tea itself does not taste as strong as it did and there is a faint whiff of Bergamot. PG Tips have said they have discontinued th...
Irish Breakfast from Adagio Teas

Feb. 7th, 2018
Adagio's Irish Breakfast is a well-priced aromatic blend that goes best with a bit of milk. I disagree with the company's "malty" descriptor. The dry leaf has a twangy jammy aroma that is very pleasant. An overall solid daily tea.

The dry tea in the bags is finely chopped and smells strong and malty, like most grocery store Assam blends.
I steeped it for four minutes in boiling water and the brewed tea is more complex than I expected. The strong malt flavor has chocolate and molasses notes that set it apart from other Assam blends. It's moder...

Not a bad tea at all. I usually double bag it though since I like my tea strong and plentiful. I've had a lot of this as my old work used to stock it and I was never disappointed per se, but always wished it was a little better.

This tea is OK. It's like the dregs of the English Breakfast tea though. Smaller cut, like the English tea was shaken and this is what fell out. You might be disappointed if you like the English, but I'm sure this is very good if you prefer Irish Breakfast.
