Loose leaf tea is the way to go because it is more full-flavored than weak tea bags. This tea is the most popular in many parts of England. I found the taste to be slightly bitter despite the sugar and half-and-half. It's good and strong. I'll buy it again.

(I attest that I wrote this review as an actual humanoid, not AI, and I'm in no way affiliated with Taylor's of Harrowgate)So I've been fishing around for new tea blends to try and, based on all the positive press, I decided to give this a whirl, buying the slightly-less-economical smaller size (the other is 140 sachets or something like that) just in case I wound up disagreeing (because what would I do with 139 unused tea bags?)But I'm definitely going to order the larger size next time, because this is pure pleasure in liquid form. I'm not enough of a tea-snob to be able to adequately describe its various characteristics, but it's a blend of several different plain black teas, giving it a wonderful flavour-profile that's quite smooth on my palate (I'm almost certain I detected notes of Assam and English Breakfast in the mix). It's easy to see why this is such a popular tea across the pond.The tea itself is made in the "pellet-fashion" rather than true loose-leaf, but in this case that just means they were able to fit more of this ambrosia into a single bag. It doesn't seem to impact the actual flavour at all. For best results in storing, you'll probably want to use a separate container, since this particular size doesn't come in sachets. I use two teaspoons in a 14 oz. cup, steeped for four minutes, with a splash of Coffee-Mate coconut creme creamer, and every cup has been perfection so far.I know 5-star reviews are often seen as dodgy things not to be trusted, but I assure you I gave it 5-stars simply because I found absolutely nothing wrong with it, and it arrived completely unharmed.

I love this loose tea, and it is very difficult to find. The flavor is great and I tell anyone who will listen that this is so. This tea is so great that my sister-in-law has stolen this latest shipment in order to 'give' it to me as a Christmas present.Damned in-laws, great tea.

I am a lifelong black tea ☕️ drinker, but being American, Lipton tea bags were all I knew till my 30s when I tried the Twinings made for the USA. So much better but in my 40s I tried an English import, PG Tipps, which I gather is the Lipton of the U.K. You Stateside people who snobbish it up about drinking this, put the noses down. Drink a cup of Lipton then shut it. U.K's worst (to some) is impossible to beat here. 🇬🇧I am 62 now and since that first box of Tipps, never touched another non U.K. tea except for a few (USA based) British Tea Store specialties like Huckleberry black tea. Just for illustration, I rarely drink Tipps except for the now and again quick cup and a superior iced tea, my taste for a flavorful and strong morning cup are an imported BRITISH tea, Taylors of Harrogate pure Assam loose leaf. I enjoy Bewley's Irish Breakfast blend and the U.K. Twinings import version of English Breakfast now and again, and enjoy trying new-to-me imported blends from Scotland and Ireland as well as England, and singles like Nigiri, Assams from specific tea gardens, etc. Just to let you know, I love a good strong black tea throughout my day starting with the first eye opening breakfast pot.I had been mulling over trying the two Yorkshire loose teas, Red and the more expensive Gold and finally pulled the trigger on both.These teas are not the normal teas a loose tea drinker expects to get at all! One who drinks a lot of teas has learned that (arguably to some) bag teas are the sweepings so to speak (not literally!), the small broken leaf bits and there is a lot of powdery stuff. Loose leaf tea are the whole tightly curled leaves and broken ones too, unavoidable in packing and handling, but whole or broken they are distinctly leaves, dried curled leaves.Both Red and Gold have nothing resembling leaves, broken or otherwise. The best I can describe them are tiny, almost round granules of tea. Not powder, but granules, very odd looking to anyone used to loose LEAF teas. If you use a pot without tightly woven infuser or one with almost invisibly tiny holes, the strainer holes in the spout won't even begin to keep you from filling your cup full of tiny tea granules.Unless you like tea that is literally coal black and so strong that the strength overwhelms the delicious flavor, try a pot or cup with the recommended measurements, to test, but if you enjoy a less black, less ridiculously strong cup, cut back just a bit. No "teaspoon for the pot" extra LOL. I love a strong, assertive tea, like my beloved Assam, but this stuff is the tea that may curl your hair.All that said, it is delicious once you find that "sweet spot" of tea amount and steeping time. Do NOT steep extra time by the way. This stuff is rocket fuel. I highly recommend both flavors, just don't expect nor treat it as a regular loose leaf tea.

I must admit to being a a bit of a tea snob; though perhaps not the 'right' kind of tea snob. I judge tea on how it tastes, not by how I think it should taste based on its price. I disappointed a tea lover once by not saying that my favorite tea was Darjeeling - which I find to be just a little flat. I like my black tea to have a strong reddish color and a good bite of tannin. I drink it brewed strongly and quickly, with a touch of sugar and a splash of milk. I expect it to be fragrant, with just a touch of smoke. I have used Twining's loose leafed teas and like them, though perhaps not quite as much. I have used one or two more expensive loose leafed teas in tins and I like them, too. I have tried a few Tazo teas and have found it impossible to get the tea strong enough, even when using ten or twenty times the tea (by cost, not by weight)! Taylor's of Harrogate gives me a rich, dark, strong brew with good bite. It may be just a bit less fragrant than really expensive teas, but I love the flavor.Those who drink tea occasionally and like to look at the tins on the counter will likely find those to be a good value. Those who guzzle half a gallon of tea a day may find that they save a little money buying tea in these huge foil pouches. And they can do so without giving up any flavor or fragrance. Sealed in these large foil bags, I find the tea to be at least as fresh and sprightly as that in any tin. I move it in batches from the bag into an old tin that I keep on the counter. The bag I keep hidden in the cupboard, sealed with a clip, and seem to use it fast enough that it always seems fresh.
