Earl Grey Bravo from Adagio Teas
Style: Blue Flower Earl Grey – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 9th, 2012
This tea is pretty good. It has just the right amount of bergamot for me (which may be less than most Earl Grey enthusiasts like). I added cream and sugar.

I have been drinking this blend for many years and have always found it to be of consistent quality. A hearty Ceylon blend.

Earl Grey Tea from Tetley Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 13th, 2012
One of my favorite things about Earl Grey is its aroma and the dried leaf of this tea delivered with a strong smell of bergamot. Unfortunately, the scent was deceiving, as the smell was lost after steeping and the flavor was too mild for my taste. While I liked the aroma of this tea, I'd rather stick with Celestial S...

Ceylon Green Tea with Lemon Grass from Dilmah
Style: Green Tea with Lemon – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 1st, 2012
I found this tea underwhelming. It's not bad, but usually when someone puts a flavor on a bad, you expect a flavor in the tea. This pretty much tastes like the dilmah green ceylon with a hint of lemongrass, maybe, if you can find it.

Caramel Flavoured Tea from Dilmah
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 30th, 2012
I feel like this tea is both unique and versatile, which is ultimately why I put people should buy it. The tea is more scented like caramel and goes well with milk and sugar (despite the suggestions of the company), but is good naked as well. I think the ultimate strength is its ability to mix well with other fruit f...

Premium Tea from Dilmah
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 29th, 2012
I don't think this tea is particularly bad, it just isn't as good as their other teas and you can probably find a better quality ceylon for cheaper. The taste is crisp and clear and it does the job right, but I'd stick with the fruit teas.

Mango from Dilmah
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 29th, 2012
First off, this tea smells phenomenal. Dilmah does a great job making a fruit tea that can also double as an air freshener. As for the taste, it makes a great iced tea. The mango is strong, the tea is strong, and they're fairly well balanced. Overall, if you like mango, then you'll like this.

Moroccan Mint Green Tea from Dilmah
Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 29th, 2012
I love Dilmah, but this is probably one of my least favorite teas of theirs. It just doesn't have any punch like other mint teas do. Try their other teas, but don't expect much if you get this in a sample pack.

Banana Black Tea from EnjoyingTea.com
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 29th, 2012
This tea grew on me. I got this as a sample and ended up just having to pay the shipping, so 2 oz for 3 dollars AND a 20% off coupon (which sadly has expired). The banana flavor lends itself well to the crispness of the tea and if you want something to eat shortbread cookies with, I can think of very few things that ...

Ceylon Blackwood Estate Organic Green Tea from Simpson & Vail
Style: Green Tea – Region: Uva, Sri Lanka80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 6th, 2012
Simpson and Vail informs me that Blackwood estate is part of Idulgashinna estate, if you're familiar with that one (I am not).
This tea had a similar flavor profile to other Ceylon greens that I've had: it was similar in some ways to Chinese green teas, but with a darker character, and more vegetal, but slightly les...

A very delicate OP. Slight hint of chocolate. Better wehn left to brew for 5 minutes.

English Breakfast (Kenilworth Ceylon Tea) from Novus Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Kandy, Sri Lanka70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 29th, 2012
This was a strong full-bodied black tea. It didn't have much of an aroma, but I liked its taste. Overall I'd drink it again but it won't be my staple black tea.

Decaf Ceylon (Teabags) from Harney and Sons
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 16th, 2012
While this tea is a bit pricier than your average supermarket decaf black tea, it's incredible flavor is well worth the extra $$. Many supermarket decaf teas have an almost washed out flavor compared to their caffeinated counterparts, but not this delicious Ceylon decaf from Harney and Sons! I highly recommend it for...

I had this tea at a Barista outlet in Kolkata. I loved how fresh & uplifting this tea was! I have green teas regularly & thought this beats all the rest that I've ever had!
Cheers!
English Breakfast Decaf (Kenilworth Ceylon Decaf) from Novus Tea
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Kandy, Sri Lanka63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 26th, 2012
This tea is among the best decaffeinated pure black teas that I've tried, whether loose-leaf or from a tea bag.
Full-bodied, dark, strong but smooth and somewhat mellow. There is a vaguely keemun-like fruitiness.
I find it interesting that Novus also carries a caffeinated version of this tea, it allows me to com...
English Select Ceylon from Eilles
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon47 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 9th, 2012
A friend brought me this from Europe.
Flavor is a bit dull: not much bite or kick, but a heavy, bitter aftertaste. Malty for a Ceylon. If I had to guess, I would probably have guessed that this was an Assam rather than a Ceylon. However, it wasn't particularly exciting as either.
I was also surprised to find t...
English Breakfast (Kenilworth Ceylon Tea) from Novus Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Kandy, Sri Lanka60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 8th, 2012
This tea is really good, if not oversteeped. I steeped it for 5 minutes and it was too bitter, but then I tried it again and I steeped it for 3 minutes, and it was perfect. I usually like strong tea, and it was strong enough. It didn't have a very distinctive aroma. I added cream and sugar.

Feb. 28th, 2012
I find it a bit strange that Novus offers both a caffeinated and decaffeinated Ceylon tea from Kenilworth estate. Usually, companies do not wish to draw attention to the difference between a caffeinated tea and its decaffeinated counterpart, as the decaf tea usually pales in comparison. But, in this case, Novus boldl...

New Vithanakande Estate Pekoe from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Ratnapura, Sri Lanka73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 13th, 2012
This is a Ceylon whose character is somewhat in between the high-grown, lighter Ceylon black teas and the richer, maltier ones. Strong but smooth, with tones of rice, wintergreen, and malt. Very rich red-brown color.
Although this tea is initially quite smooth, the aftertaste is rather tannic: bitter and astringen...

A good black tea. Tastes similar to PG tips.

Golden Garden Estate FBOPF Ex. Spl. from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 10th, 2012
The first time I made this tea, I brewed it too long (5 minutes) and it was really strong, and too bitter, but when I brewed it for 3 minutes, it was just right. I often like my tea really strong and I have to brew it for a long time. This tea is good. It tastes a lot like other Ceylon teas I've tried, which I usually ...

Jan. 2nd, 2012
Another very good black tea from Upton Tea Imports, above-average for Upton's Ceylons, which I tend to like less than their Indian black teas. Middle-of-the-road black tea character, but very well-executed.
This tea is broken into small, wiry pieces of already small leaf, which unfurl upon brewing. Brewed as instr...

Great value! Good price, good taste, but their Ceylon tea is better. I'm really impressed with Ahmad Teas.

Cream from Adagio Teas

Dec. 24th, 2011
I didn't like this tea. My son, my little tea tasting buddy, also disliked it. However, it is what it says it is - a smooth cream tea, so I cannot rate it badly. Just completely not my preference. Very creamy and tastes convincing.

Oriental Spice from Adagio Teas

Dec. 21st, 2011
I was excited about this one from the description, and when I opened the bag, the gorgeous, strong smell enticed me. I was looking for an Adagio tea that would suit my cravings for a good Orange Spice, and also my love for Chai and spicy teas.
Sadly the tea was much milder than the scent. Without sugar it was basic...
