Since I have problems with insomnia, yet like to drink tea of an evening, I buy decaffeinated black teas. For this taste test, I am comparing this Taylors of Harrogate Decaffeinated Breakfast Tea with Ty-Phoo Decaf Black Tea. I poured them both right after each other, one teabag per 8oz cup. I am taste testing them black and unsweetened.
This, the Taylors of Harrogate, came in a 50 gram box of 20 teabags. That means each teabag hold 2.5 grams of tea. Even though I have left the bag inside the cup, it does not taste strong or assertive to me.
The box only identifies it as “…seriously flavor-packed teas from the Rift Valley in Southwestern Kenya, then gently decaffeinate the blend using a natural process.”
It is mild as black tea goes. It tastes weaker than the Ty-Phoo Decaf.
Since neither brand really gives much in the way of origins for the teas in their respective blends, there’s not a lot to go on, flavor-wise.
This tea IS good for someone like me, who’s more interested in just having a nice, mild cuppa (or 3) of an evening, so I can enjoy it without worrying I won’t be able to sleep. It’s also good, blended with others. It is not a standout blend, but it works fine for a nightcap cup of tea.
Not too special, but it works for what it is.

Meh…. reminds me of tea I can get in a mid range hotel. Not bad and will do in a pinch but definitely not something I would reach for on a daily basis.

This appears to be my last bag of these, which means someone else in the house has been drinking it. It has a cloudy feel as I drink it.

Flavors: Sweet, Thick, Woody

Sounds like it’s a good thing somebody’s been pilfering it :P

My tea tends to be “shared” when someone is short on coffee

Bought this on Amazon the other day for those times when I can’t have caffeine. This is one strong tea. It’s not exactly bitter but I am not sure how to describe it. I won’t actually be having this with breakfast because in the morning I still drink caffeinated tea. But I could see drinking this with breakfast if I totally abstained from caffeine. It is not great mind you but not that bad either.

Brewed two tea bags in 16oz of boiling water for 3 min.
