Earl Grey from Benner Tea Co
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend72 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 30th, 2024
Benner Earl Grey (from ALDI food stores) came across much the opposite to me, on first try, as to the other reviewer: weak on bergamot and OK on tea. In fact, when opening the paper wrapper for each bag and taking a good sniff, I hardly could detect the bergamot, but the tea was obvious in the dry aroma. The bergamo...

Earl Grey from Benner Tea Co
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend52 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2022
Benner English Breakfast is ALDI's regular "premium" offering. This Earl Grey is a periodic special.
The tea bags are packaged in individual cellophane pouches. The dry tea looks like CTC granules that have been further crumbled. It has a nice bergamot aroma.
The brewing tea smells of bergamot, but there's little...
Loose Leaf Breakfast Blend Black Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????72 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 16th, 2020
I was really excited to see loose-leaf tea for sale in ALDI, and I eagerly bought this. I can't remember how much it cost but I think it was around $5. I had written some time back about how frustrated I was at how bad the tea bag teas from Benner Tea Co, the ALDI generic brand, were.
ALDI consistently has high-qual...
Chamomile from Benner Tea Co
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 11th, 2019
This is ALDI's recreation of Bigelow Sweet Dreams. The balance is a bit different, but the same flavors are there.
The profile is chamomile and mint. The dominant mint is spearmint rather than peppermint and there's a little bit of sourness from the hibiscus. The menthol coolness appears in the finish along with som...
Peppermint Herbal Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 26th, 2018
The peppermint is surprisingly good for the price and has plenty of flavor and menthol. There's just enough of an herbal, grassy flavor so it doesn't taste like a candy cane.
For drinkers of grocery store peppermint tea bags, Benner is as good as Bigelow or Celestial Seasonings, but significantly less expensive, $1....
Organic Throat Relief Herbal Tea Blend from Benner Tea Co
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 17th, 2018
This is my absolute favorite tea. I found this tea at Aldi's on clearance so I thought I would try it. It has a mild berry sweetness to it that tastes great hot or cold. The only problem now is that I can't find it. I think that's because it is a seasonal tea that is labeled as medicinal for throat relief. That probabl...

Classic Blend from Benner Tea Co
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????25 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 13th, 2018
The standard tea bags are wrapped in paper, so if they're not put into an airtight container, they'll probably start to go stale before the box of 100 is finished. The dry tea looks like a blend of orthodox and CTC produced teas and smells smoky, malty and a bit like fresh straw.
The brewed tea is disappointing. The...
English Breakfast from Benner Tea Co
Style: English Breakfast – Region: ?????25 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
May. 12th, 2018
It smells sort of like an English Breakfast blend, I guess. Sort of woody. Far from the most aromatic tea. It tastes like cardboard, very thin, and it's extremely astringent even when brewed for only 3 minutes. The only use for this I can think of is cold brewing it and adding lemonade. It's terrible on its own, and th...

Compared to another tea at twice the price same brew time, same water amount and same cup style. Was hard to tell them apart. For the price and ease of purchase worth the money for an everyday cup.

English Breakfast from Benner Tea Co
Style: English Breakfast – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 11th, 2017
This tea isn't super great, but it's definitely not the worst thing. The price is pretty good, $1.20 for a box of 20 bags. However, there are teas that are the same price but are much better quality.
The flavor was decent for the first couple of sips, it had a sort of floral taste. Quickly though, my mouth began to ...
Organic Digestive Herbal Tea Blend from Benner Tea Co

I found this tea by accident at Walmart. I purchased it & to my surprise it was awesome. I had been having some issues with my stomach and this tea really calmed things down. Well eventually I went the entire box & now I can no longer find it. I have searched several Walmart with no luck!

Green Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
May. 2nd, 2017
Effective price at Aldi's just increased 25% via shrinking the packaging. A box of 20 Benner green tea bags now contains only 30 grams of tea instead of the 40 grams it used to contain.
Walmart sells Uncle Lee's green tea bags at half that cost and is a much better deal for a comparable product.
English Breakfast from Benner Tea Co
Style: English Breakfast – Region: ?????39 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 10th, 2017
This was pretty bad. I'd take it over Lipton, but that's not saying much. I like to try low-end teas now and then so that I'm truly aware of the full range of tea on the market, and this was certainly a low-end tea.
This is one product that I honestly had no idea what to expect when I approached it. On the one ha...
