Chittagong Hill Tea from TWG Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Bangladesh87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 29th, 2018
I was excited to try this! Thank you to my brother Nat for bringing this back to me from the UK. I have known of, and been wanting to try TWG Tea for some time, and I was also excited to try another tea from Bangladesh. I was not disappointed! This turned out to be a very enjoyable tea.
Dry leaf looks kind of averag...
Green Tea from Teatulia
Style: Green Tea – Region: Bangladesh57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 2nd, 2015
The aroma of the broken green leaves in the teabag is, well, rather green! It is like a blend of fresh spinach, buttered greens (specifically buttered cauliflower) and a little like fresh collards. Brewing the tea I found it surprisingly brisk, almost like a black tea with its briskness, there are also notes of honey a...

Style: Lemongrass – Region: Bangladesh83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 2nd, 2015
Another tea I was a bit apprehensive about, I love lemongrass in food and I can kinda tolerate it in tea blends when I feel it belongs (no idea, but for a while it seemed that lemongrass was in everything, drove me crazy) but just straight lemongrass as a tea, never had it! Giving the bag a sniff I was pleased, I love ...

Feb. 2nd, 2015
Next up on the tasting adventure is Earl of Bengal, a blend of Bergamot and Black Tea, I made this when resident Earl aficionado was home, so he got to help me taste, and by help I mean he split the cup with me. The aroma of the teabag is pretty much all citrus all the time, the sharp slightly lemony aroma of the Berga...

Style: White Tea – Region: Bangladesh70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 30th, 2015
sniffing the teabag I get notes of wildflowers, fresh hay, a bit of lettuce, and a tiny bit of fruitiness at the finish. This is one of the more delicate white teas I have sniffed, giving it a steeping brings out more of the honey and wildflower notes, it reminds me of a summer field in full bloom.
The tea is surp...
Green Tea (Teabags) from Teatulia
Style: Green Tea – Region: Bangladesh53 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 4th, 2014
I like the scent of this tea, both in the tea bag and from the tea itself. Without any sweetener added (my preferred method), the taste was a bit too tanniny, I think. The flavor wasn't exactly bitter, but it wasn't particularly pleasant.
When I added a small bit of sugar to the second steep, this notably improved t...
Earl of Bengal Tea from Teatulia
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Bangladesh80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 9th, 2012
This is a delicious version of Earl Grey. I'm very glad that it's organic since I'm paranoid about those sorts of things. The flavor is mild, but delicious and soothing.

Mar. 17th, 2012
This tea doesn't seem very remarkable. The flavor is a lot like other black teas except more bitter than usual. It's okay, but it's more expensive than I would think. I added cream and sugar.

Sep. 26th, 2010
I don't find much difference among the various serious Earl Greys (I'm dismissing some of the really cheap ones with a fake taste), maybe because the bergamot gives them all a distinctive flavor. This one is a pleasant, reasonably aromatic version. Generally, I prefer a stronger, darker tea, but this would be good for...

Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Bangladesh27 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 2nd, 2010
This is not pure ginger root but rather, a blend of ginger and Vasaka leaf.
I find this herbal tea to be very strongly bitter...I'm almost positive it's from the Vasaka leaf. The bitterness is overpowering. There's not much aroma, just a little from the ginger, but it's the weaker aroma of powdered dry ginger, not...
Earl of Bengal Tea from Teatulia
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Bangladesh73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 30th, 2010
The loose leaf is larger and lighter gray than any of Teatulia's other black teas. The aroma of the dry leaf is strongly of bergamot, but it is a deep, complex aroma.
I brewed this tea for two minutes using one teaspoon per cup. This produced a bold, strong cup of tea that I think is a classic Earl Grey: very bala...
Tulsi Tea Loose Leaf (Tulsi Infusion) from Teatulia
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Bangladesh67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 21st, 2010
This is interesting because it's so radically different from Organic India's blend of Tulsi and Black Tea that I almost wouldn't consider it the same style or in the same category.
The black tea used in this blend has some bite to it and is rather tannic. The aroma is deep and malty. The tea definitely dominates t...
Neem Nectar from Teatulia
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Bangladesh80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 17th, 2010
The leaf looks just like black tea and the aroma is initially just like a particularly unremarkable black tea, but upon sipping the cup, wow, an explosion of flavor unlike anything I've had before.
It's hard to describe exactly what the neem is adding to this tea, because I've never tried anything from the neem tree...
Breakfast Tea Loose Leaf (Bengal Breakfast) from Teatulia
Style: Black Tea – Region: Bangladesh73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 15th, 2010
This tea immediately got my attention on the first sip. In my opinion, it is uniformly better than Teatulia's black tea in every way--there are few ways in which I would prefer that tea to this one. The only thing I found missing from this tea were some of the fruity tones in the aroma, but they were light and not pa...

Style: Lemongrass – Region: Bangladesh80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 7th, 2010
Lemongrass is lemongrass, and the difference- between various lemongrasses (for tea) that I've tried have been very subtle. That said, this is without a doubt the best lemongrass I've ever tried.
This isn't the most lemony version of this herb that I've had, but it has a smoothness that is hard to find. Lemongrass...
Green Tea from Teatulia
Style: Green Tea – Region: Bangladesh47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 2nd, 2010
The dry leaf has a very different appearance from other green teas I've tried, including both steamed and pan-fired teas. It makes me wonder if this tea is produced in a very different way.
The aroma is vegetal and deep, and spicy. This tea has a tangy quality. This tea resembles Thai- and Laos-grown green teas m...
White Tea Loose Leaf from Teatulia
Style: White Tea – Region: Bangladesh80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 1st, 2010
I found this tea to be delightfully unique; it's my favorite of Teatulia's teas. The delicate silvery leaves are deceptive: this tea produces a deep brown liquor. More like a Darjeeling white or green tea than any other white tea I have tried, but much richer and more full-bodied than any Darjeeling white teas I've t...

Jul. 16th, 2010
This is the first tea I've ever tried from Bangladesh, and I truly didn't know what to expect. I used about 1 teaspoon per cup and brewed for about 2 minutes. The result was a fairly dark cup of black tea which was fairly balanced and moderate in strength.
The aroma is rich and spicy, but I find it hard to describ...
