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.

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)
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)
