This is my standby, always in the cupboard late night cup. Plenty hot with milk and sugar, and I can practically feel my nerves slowly smooth out and unfrazzle. Not the most adventurous cup, but a good reliable cup every time.

At Strada Cafe, Berkeley – had a steaming hot cup of this. I remember liking this one the last time I had it, but it’s been a while so I wasn’t really sure how it would measure up today. Turns out it was quite tasty! I liked the blend of bergamot with more of a citrus accent, without being overdone. Some natural sweetness to it, unobtrusive black tea base. A very good back-up tea for a cafe setting.

Mild grassy taste – no intense flavors. Very clean tasting, yet unexciting.

drank Four Red Fruits by Twinings

Another malomorgen Random Pick…thanks, girl!

This smells very nice…fruity…not tart, but like in-the-woods-type fruit or just picked type fruit. It has a unique Reddish-brown color.

It’s actually pretty good, too! It’s almost like a berry-meets apple-meets lemon type taste…without being overly tarty or puckery. OH YES!!! I’m into the ’words ending in Y" today!!!! Bring it ON!!!!

Fixed this over the holiday. I was looking for a fruity Kool-Aid replacement. Tasted great. While the clear dark amber color was very pretty, I actually grabbed it thinking that it would produce a red color. Goofed up there. Next time I better do a practice run since I obviously was thinking of another tea.

This makes a decent cup of tea. I like the crisp ending it provides. No cream/milk, no sugar. I don’t know if I’ll repurchase seeing that there are other teas I like more, but it’s fine.

drank Darjeeling Tea by Twinings

That was a good cup of bagged Tea!
I think it is a all-round good tasty experience, that you get from this Tea.

I drank this Darjeeling without any things added to the Tea, that I mostly do with Tea.

I’m sure that I will drink this Tea again!

Ever since buying this tea in London year before last I have been unable to drink anything else. I like my tea traditional. I am going to DIE though, as I usually buy it from Twinings USA online – 4 boxes at a time. My supplies are running low and when I tried to order more yesterday, they said that they are out of stock and since it is in such great demand are not planning on restocking? Huh? WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!!! Aughhhhhhh… Does anyone have a clue where I can find more online or on home base in Miami please, please, please.

Had this for lunch with a little bit of milk. It was my last bag and I am a little sad that it is now gone.

I had this a couple of days ago for lunch and it makes me so sad that I only have two bags of it left. It tasted so good. It wasn’t sugary sweet which was fantastic but it had enough flavor to compliment my meal.

I just need to start making myself hot tea again instead of going with the big pre-prepared sweet tea that my school has.

Yummy. After putting up with a no-name tea with coffee creamer at work, this is fantastic with a little bit of milk. It is a bit of a balance to find because if I put too much milk in it then I dilute the flavor but I find the flavor to be lacking with no milk in it at all.

Don’t remember how long I prepared it but I do remember that it tastes really good with the leftover milk from my honey nut cheerio bowl.

I wanted a nice warm drink before going to bed but I know that if I drink a stronger black tea I will stay up a little later than I mean to. (Still have to go to work in the morning.) So, brew it weak, put milk in it, and out comes an instant cup of comfort that will actually help me get to sleep. For some reason this type of tea really helps me relax.

Second time drinking this tea and it is lovely. Very light without being overpoweringly flowery. I read on the container that it is nice to drink with milk and I have been on an Add Milk to Tea spree so I added some. I added less this time to see how it tastes. But so far I really like it.

Sushi and a solid green tea on a Saturday night . Can’t really say more I mean it had a strong more consistant taste than other greens I’ve had before. It didn’t really smell too strong but it did smell good. Can’t go wrong with green tea and sushi , just a stellar combination, these japenese people are so smart.

UpInTheAir

That’s an old standard.

JonTea

LOL what are you saying? Japanese people lost their credibility to smartness?

I know this comment was written a while ago…but fyi, gunpowder tea is a Chinese green tea. I’m half Japanese and like gunpowder tea.

Twinings special darjeeling.
This tea is a fresh and sweet flavor, a bit of astringency.
It is delicious tea with sufficient balance.

Enjoyed a cup of Earl Grey this afternoon. I like to keep the tea ball in the cup as I drink it so that by the time I get to the bottom of the cup the tea is especially bitter. Brings back memories of 8 AM chemistry lectures.

Preparation
8 min or more

drank African Rooibos by Twinings

backlogging from last night.

This tea is unremarkable, and muddy in flavor and texture. I added 2 lumps sugar and a splash of milk, which just muddied it more. It was drinkable, but not one I plan to repeat. It actually made me appreciate the Red & White fusion from Stash that I logged the other day much more – that was clean, brisk, and velvety by comparison. The Twinings cup just made me wish I was drinking the Stash again instead!

drank Irish Breakfast by Twinings

(decaf) wanted tea w/ breakfast, didn’t want to think about it. Probably should have had full caff, but I save that for my hubby. My box of decaf is a throwback to when I didn’t drink much regular black tea b/c the caffeine seemed to affect me very strongly. I seem to be over that now.

I want to do a side-by-side taste test w/ my hubbys of the 4 Irish Breakfast teabags we have in the house – Twinings Regular, Twinings Decaf, Harney & Sons, and Choice Organic.

There’s supposed to be a huge decrease in flavour and the antioxident content when a tea is decaffinated – although I think it also depends on the method. Personally I’ve found that decaf teas taste thinner and weaker than their counterparts.

drank Pomegranate Delight by Twinings
2977 tasting notes

got this in a swap on http://swap-bot.com/

Very nice – I love that it’s just black tea and pomegranate, without any hibiscus! Most fruit flavoured Twinings blends all come out purple-red and tasting the same. This has the juicy sweet-tart flavor of pomegranate and the expected natural red-brown color. A nice relaxing fruit tea.
