Pure Assam Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 20th, 2012
UPDATE: Good Assam with fine aroma, full bodied with that slight weakness in mid-palate characteristic of pure Assams, smoky finish. One negative: it seems to have a short shelf life as loose tea. As I write this, it is harvest time in Assam, and this tea (fresh from the vendor) seems to be faded or of lesser quality.

Simply put, this is the finest Earl Grey I've yet to try. Perfect balance of bergamot with the rich tea used. Fine aroma, flavor and finish.

Green Tea with Jasmine Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: China87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 4th, 2011
This is my favorite bagged jasmine tea. The green tea provides a solid base, and the jasmine adds complexity to the flavor. Still, it's not a subtle tea, and feels like what an English green tea should be: forthright.
The tea has a slight bitter aftertaste, but it is not unpleasant if the tea is steeped briefly. The...
Irish Breakfast Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 8th, 2011
This is the dark, bitter brother to Taylor's Scottish breakfast tea. Blended to be drunk with milk, it is a real eye opener if you try it alone. Hearty rather than robust, it makes a pretty decent cup with some malty flavor and only a tiny bit of brightness.
I bought 20 bags for about $3 at a local import store, wh...
Scottish Breakfast Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Scottish Breakfast – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Sep. 8th, 2011
Although I don't typically drink my tea with milk or sweetener, Scottish Breakfast Teas are blended with this in mind so I tried mine both plain and with the milk and sweetener. When drinking plain, the tea is so robust, dark and malty that the flavors were completely overpowering, but with a touch of milk and agave th...

Blackberry & Elderflower Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 4th, 2010
I'm not a huge fan of herbal teas, but this is so delightful smelling and tasting that I really liked it. I have a thing for elderberries, either in flower or berry and I found this combo to bring out the best of both. I didn't try it iced, but I think it would be wonderful on a hot summer day.

Irish Breakfast Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 19th, 2010
This is what I'd expect from this style: a very strong black tea, bitter, full-bodied, and very malty. It isn't my favorite type of tea but for what it is, and for the fact that it's in teabags, I think it's pretty good.
This tea really works best with one teabag per cup. It's strong enough that you can brew it mo...
Earl Grey Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 18th, 2010
This is among the better Earl Greys I've had from a tea bag. Strong, very bitter, but not too tannic (especially if you use a briefer brewing). The bold bergamot presence is balanced by an aromatic black tea. I would not call this tea "light and elegant"--I think this is a stronger tea (but I used one teabag for cup...

Afternoon Darjeeling Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 16th, 2010
Fruity, even for a Darjeeling, and mellow, except for some very strong objectionable qualities that emerge. There's a harshness in the aroma that I could do without...the aftertaste is also very tannic even though at first this tea tastes smooth. Astringent for a Darjeeling.
Disappointing. Definitely recognizable...
