Original / Classic from Bell
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 9th, 2013
Firstly I make no apologies for my review of this tea as to be honest nostalgia and rose tinted glasses no doubt colour it. Being a Kiwi, Bell tea holds a special place in my memory, and it was the usual tea brewed up for breakfast, morning and afternoon teas, and whenever a cuppa was required. Saying that it really is...

Style: Scottish Breakfast – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 9th, 2013
There's nothing subtle about this. Taylor's Scottish Breakfast is a stonkingly big, powerful brew which packs a wallop. An Assam and African blend, the malty Assam is right at the forefront and the African side of things is probably Kenyan, so the whole blend is a very malty affair. It also has a sizeable caffeine hit,...

Mar. 8th, 2013
Good, traditional British blend with malty Assam and Ceylonese Pekoe. Best suited as a breakfast or morning tea. The refreshing Pekoe plesantly lifts the punchier Assam making an enjoyable brew. Nice aroma but a touch on the pricey side.

This tea is good. It's strong and not too bitter, the way I like it. It tastes really thick. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 4th, 2013
I thought it would be fitting to have my first cup of PG Tips since it was available at a friend's house, and this was the one. My price rating might be a little skewed since I got my bag for free, but from some brief online research I feel like PG Tips is a little overpriced for what it is. Despite the price, I like...

The aroma is kind of unpleasantly sweet, but the flavor is really good. It's crisp, and not too bitter. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 10th, 2013
Having not drunk Typhoo for some time, recent experiences with it suggest it is unlikely to become a regular purchase. Firmly at the budget end of branded tea, a spectacular deal saw us buy some.
At first sight, things appeared promising: the somewhat nondescript aroma forgotten as a good dark colour appeared that ...
Organic Breakfast from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 31st, 2013
I found this to be an above-average black tea in tea bags, but not good enough to justify the price. These sachets are very expensive, almost $10 for only 15. This places them in the same price range with Two Leaves and a Bud, which I prefer.
Aroma is not terribly complex: malty and robust, but not as strong relat...
Royal English Breakfast from Harney and Sons
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 17th, 2013
I enjoyed this in a Barnes and Noble cafe. Compared to Tazo Awake, I prefer this tea pretty solidly. It's perhaps a bit mellower, but I think more complex and smoother.
This was a solid black breakfast tea. It didn't quite scream "English" the way some English Breakfast blends did, but it did strike me as a typic...
English Breakfast from Wedgwood
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 13th, 2013
Firstly, who knew that Wedgwood made tea? Secondly, while I normally like black teas, this was much too strong! It was strong, a little bitter, and tasted too burnt for my liking. While I appreciate other Wedgwood products, I probably won't be having this again.

Jan. 8th, 2013
McCormick tea never gets bitter like Lipton does, for instance, when you brew it strong so that you can add milk. So if you like strong tea with milk it is the best ever!!
I'm sooo sorry to hear that it was discontinued. I had a lot earlier because I couldn't get it in Colorado and now I'm out totally. It has alway...
TB05: Mincing Lane Breakfast Blend from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 7th, 2013
Oh, this is wonderful tea. It's got the maltiness of the Assam but has that slight peppery aftertaste from the Yunnan... I'm starting to think Upton does the best breakfast blends in the business.

I didn't really enjoy this tea, but my spouse did. She liked the sweetness of it. To me it tasted a bit odd, maybe because of the sweetness...

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.
