Crème Caramel Tea from TWG Tea

Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend

76 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 22nd, 2025

From my first sniff of this tea in TWG's Bangkok shop to the latest chug, I'm struck by the strong resemblance of this flavored rooibos to Murchie's "Cozy Caramel Rooibos." Both use high-quality rooibos with suitably strong flavorings (in this case, as described on TWG's website, "a secret TWG Tea blend of sweet Frenc...

Napoléon Tea from TWG Tea

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend

91 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5

Napoléon Tea conquered me, quickly. Of all the samplers I sniffed in TWG's Bangkok store, this was one of the strongest, and certainly the most attractive to me in terms of choosing a priority for which ones to buy. The dry and in-cup aromas weren't quite as intense as the sampler, but still quite mouth-watering.

Singapore Breakfast Tea from TWG Tea

Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend

88 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 12th, 2025

Contrary to the established custom of a "breakfast tea", this isn't just a blend of black teas, or black tea with a mild flavoring. Instead, Singapore Breakfast mixes green tea, black tea, vanilla, and unspecified "rare spices". Given the fruitiness of both the aroma and flavor, and the known pieces in the mix, I sus...

Golden Earl Grey from TWG Tea

Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend

78 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 3rd, 2025

This tea came from a TWG shop in Bangkok, weighed and bagged onsite out of the top 1/4 of a wholesale bucket. As such, it smelled and tasted (and should be!) really fresh, and is excellent in quality on both counts. The dry aroma is quite fruity, more in a berry-like way than citrus, but with the bergamot orange stil...

Morning Storm Tea from TWG Tea

Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend

75 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 11th, 2025

This is the first of a handful of loose teas I purchased, for somewhat of a high price (even in the otherwise favorable baht/USD conversion), at TWG's nicely done Emporium Mall store in Bangkok. Now that I'm home, they'll be rotated in behind teas being used up.

Admittedly, I got Morning Storm mainly for the name, ...
