McCormick Black Tea (Té Negro) has bold, brisk flavor, rich color and produces a stimulating boost. With our individual tea bags, you can brew a hot cup of tea or prepare a pitcher of refreshing iced tea to enjoy anytime of the day. Like green tea, black tea comes from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. For black tea, the leaves undergo a fermentation process which turns the leaves black and intensifies the flavor. Antioxidant-rich black tea provides a variety of health benefits. Black Tea is one of the many products offered by McCormick and you can be confident that they are of the highest quality. Since 1947, McCormick has been a leading brand in Mexico, providing ingredients to make delicious, authentic meals for your family.
Company description not available.
We visited Mexico, and forgot to bring tea! In desperation, I visited a local grocery and the only straight black tea I could find was McCormick tea bags, 25 per pkg. Brewed each bag western style, with 6 oz purified water at whatever temperature it came out of the hotel coffee maker, probably 190°-200° F, for 3 minutes.
The tea was not discernably an Assamica, so I would guess an ordinary generic China black. Fannings, of course. Very plain tasting. Aroma similar to Lipton bags, but less intense. Taste had some astringency, dull generic strong black tea that gave me the caffeine I wanted. Not unpleasant, no serious defects, but nothing to write home about. If standard Lipton black tea bags (a very well standardized and reproducible benchmark) earn a rating of 65, and Red Rose a rating of 60, then I would rate these McCormick Té Negro bags in Mexico at 50. Better than quaffing an energy drink or popping a caffeine pep pill.
Flavors: Astringent, Tea
I know the travel tea desperation feeling!
