Warning – this tea is packaged in the US, and not the UK. Hence, it is weak and tasteless compared to the British equivalent. Very disappointing.
Twinings was founded in London, England in 1706, and has a long and respected tradition of producing only the finest of teas. This selection box contains four of Twinings’ best teas – Earl Grey, Lady Grey, English Breakfast and Irish Breakfast.
Earl Grey, black tea flavored with oil of bergamot, is widely respected as an excellent all-round tea. Lady Grey is a blend of all oriental black teas, Seville orange and lemon peel, and just a hint of Bergamot, its Twinings’ excellent new blend. English Breakfast tea is a mixture of black teas from Sri Lanka, which are blended to produce a smooth yet flavorful tea. And Irish Breakfast tea is a mixture of Ceylon and Assam (black) teas, well-known for its strong, malty taste, which does go great with breakfast.
And that’s my review. If you want a selection of fine black teas, teas that are sure to please any palate, then this is the product to get! I love Twinings’ excellent teas, and give them my absolutely highest recommendations!
You know I love my English Breakfast (see my earlier 5 star review of Twinings English Breakfast) — but my greatest delight is Earl Grey tea — with its deep, smokey, heavy (but not burdensome) mysterious wonderful flavors that linger hauntingly on the tongue and bring sublime moments of joy into a grey day (no pun intended). Steep it long enough so that all the flavor intensity is in your cup (or tea pot) Drink it straight, with no sugar — OR– sweeten it to bring out even more of its wonderful flavor — AND for a special treat, add cream or milk or soy milk– your Earl Grey will take on a “Chai presence”!!! Either way, Twinings Earl Grey is a tea to look forward to time and time again.
Lady Grey was new to me, and yes it is a bit lighter and not as intense as the Earl himself, but Lady Grey is still very very good — notably so.
Irish Breakfast is a tea that may make you break out in song — it is robust and delightful, clearing up “morning fog” in a hearty way.
This is a very good variety pack, IMHO, to keep on hand at the office when having panel meetings or board meetings — or just in the “break kitchen” for folks to enjoy when they are want a tea break!! Wonderful flavors and aromas like these can’t but help to make people sit up and notice, and make a sometimes dull work-day (or…ahem…meeting) more enjoyable.
This variety pack of Twinings tea has four flavors. The Lady Grey is my favorite, hands down. It makes delicious iced tea. It has a crisp, clean taste. The other three flavors are good also.
I use only two bags to make a pitcher of iced tea and it’s strong enough with just the two bags. This tea can be found locally, but costs much more than the Amazon price. This is my second purchase of this item.
Love that my favorites are all in one box. When company comes over, I can easily offer them a choice of some of the best teas out there.
