So this tea just made my 3 year old brother like tea. Dang.
16 Tasting Notes
Twinings, you’ve managed to make me come back for more. Hoo-ee! THIS, my friends, is a good cup of iced tea! I reckon I oversteeped the thing though.
Honestly, being a lover of lightish teas, I enjoy this tea. It’s really light! I don’t really drink any green teas, but I could totally get into this!
This time, it was stronger, maybe because this time I didn’t resteep it and drink the second steep (I know I’m weird). But this time, I drink the first steep. It’s still REALLY good! Thank you to my wonderful stepfather for getting me this dee-licious cuppa!
Let me just say something here. One, this tastes like sh*t. Two, I do NOT like spiced teas. Three, this tea smells Christmasy!
Just a stronger tea than I expected. Otherwise, all good.
This was just an OK tea. I got an ounce of the stuff at the Eau Claire location of Infinitea (which is f*cking awesome!)
This is, so far, the best tea I’ve drunk. It’s ALSO my first loose-leaf tea! Anyway, I nice mild cup, just right for my tastes, considering I’m not a fan of more astringent teas
I cannot wait to try this! If it’s good, I’ll bring it to school in a pinch!
I put this at the same rating as Twinings’ amazing English Breakfast tea because it tastes almost identical, just a bit smokier.
Oh, Lady Grey, I hope you don’t taste as absolutely AWFUL as your spouse, the Earl Grey from Twinings. But, without further ado…
Meh, it isn’t great, but I could drink this if forced to.
Dearest Earl Grey:
I believe you don’t have the right to be in my cupboard anymore. Your wife, Lady Grey, may stay. Maybe I understeeped or oversteeped you. But, hey, my stepfather likes you!
Notes before tasting:
Awesome, sort-of sharp smell
Got it in Black Tea Variety Pack
Other teas in pack are Irish Breakfast, English Breakfast, and Lady Grey.
Bought seperately: English Afternoon.
Tasting:
Well, without further ado…
Extremely light, with a really good citrusy aftertaste
Best without milk, but with just a pinch of milk it is OK.
It’s an okay cuppa. Also, it was the first of two teas I drank at Sue Kolve’s Salon. I guess, it’s just basically a CUP O’ TEA. Sadly, I don’t believe it’s Chinese or British-made but for an American cup it’s good.
A great cuppa to wake you up, definitely. I added a small amount of milk and it tasted like, well, BLACK TEA. Either way, freaking great tea, you can bet I’ll buy more from Twinings.
This was a good tea, but when I steeped it, it put on a rather different colour than I expected…Adding milk did nothing to the taste, which is almost exactly like black tea, with the addition of an aftertaste.
