Twinings Tea Reviews

Twinings Tea Reviews

Tea Amigos definitely digs the underground tea culture, but sometimes you got to dip into the mainstream. Dax and Mike proudly review Twinings Tea because despite getting noticed and signed, they are still cranking out tea old school, from Twinings Earl Grey, to Lady Grey, from green tea, to herbal tea. They never sold out, and can still be seen performing at local tea venues in London like they jammed out back in the day (1706 to be exact). Twinings of London is one of the most celebrated tea companies in the world, so join us in the festivities. 



 

Twinings Green Tea

Mike: Twining’s Green Tea has something in common with Twinings Earl Grey in that it almost tastes like black tea with a green tea flavoring. I happen to like this feature because many green teas taste overly grassy...(Read more)

Twinings China Oolong Tea

Dax: Oolong tea has always shared characteristics of hay. Maybe it's just me, but Chinese tea gives you a eco-friendly green flavor to savor and makes you think that you are some field-grazing horse or cow...(Read more)

Twinings Earl Grey Tea

Dax: Starting off our Tea-a-Day reviews with a Twining’s brand tea makes perfect sense. We drink Twining’s everyday, due to its amazing availability. Right when I get to steeping Twining’s Earl Grey Tea, wofts of bergamot blast me in the face...(Read more)


Twining's Pure Peppermint Tea

Dax: Just to be redundant, I’m gonna repeat the fact that I love fresh mint tea. Peppermint tea is the tea for me. I love the complete spectrum of flavor that the herbal tea provides, and it is great hot or cold. Cold peppermint tea with...(Read more)


Twining's English Breakfast Tea

Mike: Steep too long and you might find the taste overwhelming. I don’t though. I leave the the Twinings English Breakfast Tea bag in for the whole ride. I think Dax mentioned a while back that it gets too strong, so he pulls it out prematurely. I’ve always been a fan of very powerful, almost overwhelming tastes, so...(Read more)

 

Twinings Herbal Revive Tea

Dax: strong>Twinings Herbal Revive had me excited when I steeped it, as it plop plop fizz fizzed right when the bag hit my perfectly heated teacup/water combo. Efferdent in the mix? I've had braces, but no dentures here. Twinings knows what they are doing, and their lemon ginger tea fared well. Although in my mind it was standard, Herbal Revive did make other....(Read more)

 

Twinings Lemon Twist Tea

Mike: As our faithful readers know by now, Dax was in Argentina and the Dominican Republic on a teasan excursion. What he brought back was some unique Twinings Tea that I have never seen in the states. One of these is Twinings Lemon Twist herbal tea. Let me tell you that we're really missing out because even the herbal tea blends are better than....(Read more)

 

Twinings Jasmine Green Tea

Mike: Twinings Green Tea Jasmine coming straight at you from the beautiful Dominican Republic, and I don't know if Twinings make their jasmine tea any different for this market but this one has a very Yerba Mate touch to it. I don't know if this is purely psychological but Twinings Jasmine Green tea is much sweeter than other jasmine teas....(Read more)

 

Twinings Four Red Fruits Tea

Mike: Twinings Four Red Fruits Tea is yet another unique Twinings tea I have not seen arund my native Chicago but had the fortune of Dax brining it into the teasan workshop. I had my assistant, Wilbur, unwrap it and my apprentice, Simone, place it gently into my cup and steep for the appropriate amount of time. Good job Wilbur and Simone, your annual reviews are coming up and I'm noticing steepological improvements.
Anyway, this is hands down one of the best fruit teas I've ever....(Read more)

 

Twinings Orange and Cinnamon Black Tea

Mike: Twinings tea has had heavy representation here on Tea Amigos for good reason: they got a lot of blends and they're a big name tea company with their tentacles wrapped around the globe. Dax got a chance to shake hands with one of these Dominican tentacles when he was in Puerto Plata. When he came back and dropped some Twinings tea on my desk as a souvenir I was like "man, you didn't have to go to the land of toilets that flush clockwise to bring back some readily....(Read more)

 

Twinings Lemon Scented Tea

Mike: I'm not sure what the difference between lemon scented tea and lemon flavored tea is but I have a theory. Envision the preparation of your beverage. The level III tea masters over there at the Twinings tea factory kilning up a storm, little elves and gnomes bringing bushels of freshly....(Read more)
