I generally love Sri Lankan teas, and I didn’t dislike this one. It was a “no frills” kind of tea. It was okay, but I have enough tea that I do like more, that this one I probably won’t restock.

This was an ok breakfast blend. I enjoyed but not as much as I expected to.

I really enjoyed this tea and was not expecting to – I like a super black tea usually and this brewed to a very light color in the cup. But the flavor was like a warm hug. Very pleased!

This is a semi-regular breakfast tea for me. It’s a little on the lighter side, not as robust as some of my other choices, but good for a slow. leisurely wake up.

Earl Grey teas are often my favorites, but I’m surprised that I like this blend better than Palais des Thes traditional earl grey. This one was absolutely delightful and really made my day better just by sipping it. I will be looking for again!

It helps that I had this tea for the first time in Colombo while enjoying a lazy afternoon with friends, but I do think I would love this tea anyway. The cinnamon is in perfect balance with a delightful ceylon black. This tea transports me to Sri Lanka every time I pour myself a cup of it!

Most Enjoys:
A strong black tea, preferably from Sri Lanka or India. I tend to steep it a little over to get just a touch of bitterness, which I enjoy.

My Ratings:
100-90: One of my favorites, a tea that stopped me from doing whatever I was doing, to just enjoy its flavor.
89-80: I would buy again, I enjoy, but one that I can have while rushing around or reading or internet browsing – my standard breakfast teas probably fall in this range. I very much enjoy them.
79-70: An good tea. It’s pleasing in some way and I may buy it again but I wouldn’t go out of my way to make sure I have it in stock.
69-60: A tea I enjoyed, but nothing really stood out to me.
59-50: Better than average, but nothing that delighted or pleased me. It was fine.
49-1: Varying degrees of I didn’t enjoy this tea. The lower the rating goes, the more there was at least one element that I actively did not like.
