Greenfield Estate Ceylon Black Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
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 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.

Greenfield Estate Ceylon Black Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon90 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
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...

Ceylon Tea OPA from Ahmad Tea
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 14th, 2013
I love this tea. It has a rich, full, smooth flavor, but at the same time clean and not too heavy. I steep it for 6-8 minutes and drink it with milk and sugar.

Organic Idulgashinna Estate Ceylon Green Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: Green Tea – Region: Uva, Sri Lanka60 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2013
A dark-colored green tea with a brisk character, reminiscent of gunpowder or chun mee. Produces a bold cup that is more flavorful than aromatic.
Aroma is mild and herbaceous, a little dusty and suggestive of smokiness, and flavor is quite sour and a little sharp. Has a strong cooling quality. If it were summer, I...
Ceylon Tea OPA from Ahmad Tea
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon77 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 2nd, 2013
I tried a sample of this tea and liked the taste, which was stronger than most basic blacks I've had. I really appreciate the reasonable prices of Ahmad Teas, and plan to be buying and sampling more from them soon.

Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 31st, 2012
My favorite pure black tea from Ahmad Tea, and my favorite tea from any company in this price range.
If I had to pick a single example of a classic black tea, I would pick this one.
Like most of Ahmad's teas, I find this one offers exceptional value: solid quality at a very low price. It is versatile and easy to...
Cheericup Ceylon from Mark T. Wendell

Dec. 19th, 2012
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!

Toasted Sesame from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon43 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 2nd, 2012
The aroma of the leaves and the tea itself are very bland, no toasted sesame at all just a vague burnt smell.
Sadly I found this tea disappointing, it tastes like a decent black tea but there is not sesame taste except for a vague burnt taste. I was hoping for a bold sesame taste but did not get that.
Ceylon (Ceylon Orange Pekoe) from Ahmad Tea
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 19th, 2012
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

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...

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...
