Customers like the quality of the tea. They say it works well, is better than expected, and is the best yet for ice tea. It also works great with bergamot essential oil to make a custom strength Earl Grey. Customers also mention that it's nice for making a pot of brewed tea for drinking hot or making iced tea with. It's also good when boiled in milk and really gets your motor running.

13 customers mention6 positive7 negative

12 customers mention4 positive8 negative

Customers are mixed about the appearance of the tea. Some mention that a very little goes a long way, has more flavor, and less fillers. However, other customers say that it looks like very coarse coffee almost, and is not a particularly complex or nuanced tea.

"...This particular brand has more flavor and less fillers and has a great taste when I brew it in my coffeemaker." Read more

"...Yes, it is strong, but there is almost no nuance to it. It feels like the exact average of every tea I've ever had in my life. It's bland...." Read more

Three Cups in I'm Quite Happy
This is what I've been looking for in black tea. Dark and rich. If it steeps too long it's bitter, but that's how tea is. I used 15 grams of tea for 450 grams of boiling water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality "comfort" tea, evokes early memories of enjoying tea, low price
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2020
When I first learned about CTC, or the cut-tear-curl method of processing tea, it sounded downright destructive. "CTC must produce an inferior grade of tea," I thought. This Tea India purchase proved me wrong. Not only is this a big package of tea, which can easily supply one person for 10 months or more, but it tastes great and is sold at a bargain price.

I've been buying large amounts of exotic teas from overseas for a decade or more, so I consider my tea standards to be rather high. I am very pleasantly surprised by this tea. I'm glad I have the 2 pounds (and dwindling) of it in a jar in my cabinet, available whenever I need some nice, fast, tasty black tea. Despite the fine, almost powdery texture, I think it will retain its flavor for a year or more.

"Fast" is certainly applicable to this tea and is one of its virtues. The fine granularity of leaf produced by CTC makes it possible to have a rich, dark cup of black tea after steeping for a mere minute or two. Don't use too much tea (it's concentrated) or steep it much longer than 2-3 minutes, or it may get too strong and bitter. Nonetheless, these features make for convenient brewing--Just steep for a few seconds, and pour!

I find the flavor to be very comforting. It brings me back to my early memories of drinking Lipton or Tetley tea, the kinds I grew up drinking as a kid. But that doesn't mean it has a mundane or supermarket taste. It's very rich and full bodied. It calls to mind a warm and cozy kitchen. It has a smooth taste when prepared right, which is not difficult. At first I thought it might be too strong a tea to enjoy without milk, but later I accidentally drank a cup of cold Tea India tea with no milk, and it was great! I do think this tea pairs perfectly with milk, however.

It's not labeled organic, but it certainly tastes clean and natural. Regarding the question of whether the tea has a "malty" taste, associated with its assamica pedigree, I'd say, yes, it does have a mild malty taste, and that contributes somewhat to the comforting character of the drink.

I continue to buy more exotic and expensive teas while enjoying this one at the same time. I like to maintain a collection of teas, so I'm happy I bought this product and would do it again.
