Lapsang Souchong from Twinings
Style: Lapsang Souchong – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 7th, 2011
My rating is low because I tend not to like this style of tea. I actually think this tea was very good, more enjoyable than some loose-leaf Lapsang souchong that I've tried.
This is a classic Lapsang Souchong from a tea bag. It has a strong smoky aroma, and smooth, mellow flavor. Unlike some of the other reviewer...

This tea is pretty good. It has a nice smoky aroma, but it's too weak, and on the verge of being too bitter, like other Twinings black teas I've tasted. I really like the smoky flavor, though. I added cream and sugar.

Ultra Spice Chai from Twinings
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 19th, 2011
I like this chai tea. The "ultra" has more spices in it and makes for a better tea (I like my chai spicy and make it with milk). I haven't been able to find this in stores lately though.

Chai (formerly Indian Spiced Chai) from Twinings
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5

I found this tea very weak. It tasted good; overall the flavor was smooth and the cinnamon was nice, but even when I brewed it until the water was cold, it was weak. Eh. I'll probably not buy it again.

Irish Breakfast from Twinings
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: ?????50 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 17th, 2011
I think it is an average tea with not much of a difference between Twinings English Breakfast tea. If your just looking for a good breakfast tea, there are other black teas that are just as good, but a little cheaper.

Pure Peppermint from Twinings

Sep. 15th, 2011
I found this to be quite a mild peppermint tea. It was good, but I think I prefer Celestial Seasoning's peppermint tea, as it's stronger.

I am totally addicted to Twinings Earl Grey and can't live without it in the mornings as my wake up drink. It is light and refreshing and my drink of choice at anytime.

Good tea for breakfast. Not much aroma, but decent taste, and it's strong. Weirdly, it beats Teavana's several strong black teas hands down. Tastier. I like tea that tastes like tea, not dishwater.

Earl Grey from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 14th, 2011
I find this to be a very good Earl Grey tea. It isn't too heavy in flavor, but still gives my tastebuds a treat when I drink it.
The aroma is lovely, from the very few seconds of steeping until the last sip.
I enjoy this tea, its mild flavors, and its mellow nature.
Blackcurrants, Ginseng, and Tahitian Vanilla from Twinings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 12th, 2011
I found this tea to not taste as complex as I'd hoped. The flavor blend sounded just wonderful, but I didn't detect nearly the vanilla flavor as I'd hoped and expected.
Black currents are the main flavor focus in this tea, and while they certainly taste good (and a bit tart), it leaves a little to be desired. It i...
Pure White Tea from Twinings
Style: White Tea – Region: Fujian, China20 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Mar. 7th, 2011
Among my least favorite bagged teas that I've tried. Aroma very weak: vaguely floral and then dissipating into a stale, tea-like aroma. Pale cup has a muddled flavor, with a little bitterness and more astringency than I'd like, and a little sourness too. I would not drink this again.
My advice is to stick to Twin...
Ceylon Orange Pekoe from Twinings
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Matale, Sri Lanka (Dimbula)63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 28th, 2011
A classic British-style Ceylon tea. Medium-strength black tea with a fairly clean, cool taste. Moderate bitterness and astringency, little sourness. Maltier and deeper than some Ceylons.
Above average among Twinings offerings and better than what I typically expect from a tea bag. This is an example of a tea tha...
Lady Grey from Twinings

This tea had a lighter black-tea-taste to it, and the citrus flavor was strong; like the flavors had switched places from Earl Grey tea. It was good - not what I expected.

Prince of Wales from Twinings

Sep. 30th, 2010
Phooey. This used to my standard for judging Prince of Wales, which is one of my many favorites. However, in the last year or so, the quality has tanked. This makes me very unhappy, as I now have to search out a new standard. Maybe it's just the difficult years tea producers have had recently. I hope so. Otherwis...

Pure Rooibos Red Tea (African Rooibos) from Twinings
Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 8th, 2010
The quality of this rooibos surprised me...it's surprisingly aromatic, and more fruity than most. Almost no astringency, and slightly sweet. Less of the unpleasant tones in the aroma that some rooibos has. So far, the best rooibos I've tried in teabags, other than Equal Exchange's wild rooibos in pyramid sachets.

Darjeeling from Twinings
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India53 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 26th, 2010
This tea is fully decent - I'd say it's better than what most of Twinings puts out. That said, it's not a great tea. The smell is blah. The tea tastes great at the first sip, but then lingers with a bit of cardboard. I think a little bit of lemon or mint would fix that though.

i am just your average tea drinker, not really a connoisseur, just a chick who loves tea. this is the only darjeeling i've ever tried, but i really loved it. i remember the first cup i ever drank, it was quite an experience. i was very impressed. the flavor was so... intricate, somehow.

Earl Grey Decaffeinated from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????33 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
May. 20th, 2010
Exceptionally lemony and citrusy for an Earl Grey...there's only a weak suggestion of the usual bergamot aroma. The aroma is more like candied lemon than Earl Grey tea, and it has an artificial quality to it. The black tea presence is entirely unremarkable...although this tea brews a dark color, there is little other...

I think this tea is OK, but I am a sucker for vanilla black teas. Neither the vanilla nor the tea is top-notch, but you can't beat the value.

I disliked this tea...the vanilla aroma is fairly strong but has an artificial quality to it. It also doesn't blend well with the black tea. Admittedly, vanilla-flavored tea is not one of my favorites, but when well executed, it is creamy and smooth and yet having some depth. This one just comes across as vanilla pu...
