Lemon and Ginger from Twinings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 2nd, 2014
This tea is fresh and well-balanced, good hot or cold. It's caffeine free but the spicy ginger wakes me up. One of my favorites!

Irish Breakfast from Twinings
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 1st, 2014
I should note off the bat that I actually brewed this from a K-cup. I'm not sure that would have any effect on the end product beyond decreasing the steeping time, though--and since I steep my teabags until I'm done with the tea, I assume this experience was closer to that of the average person than my own standard exp...

I took one look at the name and assumed this would taste dreadful, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. Neither flavor overpowers, and while the lemon is an assertive agent the tea carries little hint of the associated acidity; the ginger lends the blend a pleasant sort of spice. I'm not overwhelmed by the scent,...

Pure Camomile (Chamomile) from Twinings
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 7th, 2014
This is not my favorite chamomile, but it does the job quite adequately. I don't detect a bad aftertaste in this tea, and the flavor itself is mild and soothing.

Irish Breakfast from Twinings
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 15th, 2014
Actually one of Twining's better blends. A bit bolder than their English breakfast tea, with more pronounced malty flavor. A nice mix of Ceylon and Assam teas. Stands up to sugar and cream if you go that way, and just fine on it's own. Biggest disappointment is the lack of aroma. Makes a pretty decent cup of tea.

Sep. 10th, 2014
steeped it way too long by accident, don't know if that helped or hurt...a good tea...perhaps the best of the camomile's I've had...not usually my type. Straightforward no frills though. Strength of flavor is just right

Orange & Cinnamon Spice from Twinings

Sep. 9th, 2014
I loathe orange & spice teas - so i may not be the best person to review this and I am shocked that I even had more than a few sips of this. Blarg! Smells great - but the taste is like drinking perfume. Not for me.

smell is strong in the orange and cinnamon department, reminds me of fall....taste is less than expected...the boldness is a little light (5 minute steep), the flavor is good and as expected but I wish it came out a little stronger

smells like a red fireball, tastes much lighter than it smells...very bland with 5 minute steep...only a slight spiciness...too bland and boring for me....especially without caffeine!!

good minty smell of course...black tea undertones...very disappointing taste...not nearly as minty as one would expect from the smell...boring black tea with a touch of mint..that's all this is

Pure Oolong (Formerly China Oolong) from Twinings
Style: Oolong Tea – Region: Fujian, China57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 22nd, 2014
Has a hint of baked flavor and no real bitterness, but it's a pretty generic cup. At $3 for 20 bags, the price isn't bad. If you're not picky about tea this one is likely worth it, but it doesn't stand out in any particular way.

Nightly Calm (Bedtime Blend) from Twinings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 15th, 2014
Quite nice tea. Easily the best chamomile tea I've tried so far. Smoothly blends with the mint, and the tea isn't bitter or dominated by the chamomile. So apparently I don't mind chamomile when its bitterness isn't the main feature of the tea.

Just yesterday I brewed a pot of Twinings English Breakfast Tea (loose leaf) for an impromptu tea party with my sister who is a coffee drinker. She loved it! It's flavor is malty with pleasant notes of nuts and toast. Both comforting and energizing, this tea is great for a morning wake up brew or a soothing pick me up ...

Almond Chai from Twinings

Jul. 21st, 2014
smell is very good and is exactly what you would expect from the flavor it is suppose to be. Flavor goes in a different direction though...tastes a bit like black licorice to me. Slight spicyness on the end...good, but would be better if it tasted as it smells.

Camomile, Honey & Vanilla from Twinings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 12th, 2014
I sampled this recently at the house of two of my friends; thank you to my friends Melanie and Irene for letting me try this one.
Aroma is mostly of camomile and vanilla, balanced between the two, with neither dominating. The honey is evident in the aroma, but is relatively subtle. Flavor is mild, muted. Low astr...

Jun. 21st, 2014
I was surprised to find this tea tasted completely different from the caffeinated version of Twinings English Breakfast. The caffeinated tea, I found bland and uninteresting.
This wasn't exactly the most flavorful tea. I brewed with boiling water and steeped for three minutes. Flavor is muted, but the aroma has p...
Earl Grey from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 13th, 2014
This tea reminds me a bit of Twinings' Russian Caravan: a nice but smoothy black tea, naturally sweet.
Earl Grey has some bergamot and vanilla notes too.
Lemon Twist from Twinings
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 10th, 2014
Aroma and flavor are basically of lemon, but is kind of a neutral thing. It's not tart or sour and it never comes bitter; actually, it's kind of sweet. There are some floral notes too.
At least it's a cheap tea, I would say it's of a fair value.

This is my first review, so please be understanding.
My tea preferences:
Black tea: milk & 1 sugar
I don't usually like smokey teas
I LOVE Darjeeling. Darjeeling is the kind of tea that made me a tea fanatic! I find it light and filled with flavor. The first Twining's Darjeeling box that I tried, I enjoyed, h...

This is one of the more memorable teas I've tried. Strong (but not overwhelming) flavour, very pleasant aroma. I found a tiny touch of milk was nice with it.

Lady Grey is my favorite breakfast tea! It has a soft, floral and citrus fragrance and tastes lighter and smoother than Earl Grey. Add cream and sugar and this tea becomes a delicate and refreshing alternative to coffee or English Breakfast tea.

OK in a pinch, but way too cinnamony (and I'm not sure its not natural flavor).
Expect a bit better from Twinnings.

pretty bland in terms of aroma and taste (is that synonymous with Irish?), but good for a change once in a while.
