Lipton Black Tea Review
For a name brand tea, this Lipton black tea is priced normally at what seems to be a deep discount. You can drink lots of Lipton for very little cash. Plus, it remains fresh on the shelf, as long as you leave the tightly applied cellophane coating on the box, for years in a cool, dry basement or…

Carrington Peppermint Tea Review
Curious thing about this Carrington Tea, Peppermint Tea. Its tagless teabags have each, a notably small amount of peppermint leaves within, and yet, it brews up into an intensely icy, delicious beverage with a taste very much like peppermint Life Savers. This is a pure, peppermint tea, with no other distracting flavors. In fact, if you…

Bigelow Plantation Mint Black Tea Review
I’ve downed many hundreds of cups of Bigelow Plantation Mint Black Tea (catalog # 00189) over the past decade or so. This Plantation Mint black tea, that is strongly flavored with spearmint leaves, is among the best spearmint flavored beverages I’ve ever sipped. It’s color is a deep orange or brown, perhaps owing to the black tea content within, and no bitterness…

Twinings English Breakfast Tea Review
Twinings English Breakfast Tea has rested in our tea pantries for well over a decade. A routine tea fan for more than twenty years, we’ve consumed several boxes of this Black Tea in recent years. They served English breakfast tea now and again at meals at high school, and some friends drank it daily and offered it whenever we’d visit them. This is a decent…

Twinings Irish Breakfast Tea Review
Twinings Irish Breakfast Tea features a substantial caffeine kick and a clear, deep orange-red color with modest bitterness if you steep it too long. Twinings, as with most black teas, is easily coaxed into sweetness with stevia or Equal. The price of this product is about average as compared with other black tea renditions we’ve tested. Twinings has lots…

Carrington Original Green Tea Review
An avid tea fan for more than twenty years, we immediately seize new varieties never sampled before. We saw this Carrington Original Green Tea at Walmart some years back, and thought to bring it home and see how it tasted. It has an equally pleasing green tea flavor as the Salada, Celestial Seasonings, and Bigelow green teas we are fond of. We enjoy its…
