English Tea No 1.

That's my favotie tea. Classic and rich flavor. A typical British 5 o'clock tea. I recommend it to all tea lovers.

I have been drinking this tea for decades. I grew up drinking Bünting Tee Grünpack, my grandmas family would mail it to her from home. When I can’t get German tea, this is my go to. It’s the closest to what I grew up with. I never get sick of it. Have purchased it probably 100 times. BUY THIS TEA

Absolutely delicious tea. Generous amount. Good value for money.

THIS TEA IS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER PURCHASED.ALL IT TAKES FOR ME IS A 18 OZ GLASS MUG [ FROM AMAZON] 2 TEA BAGS AND 16 OUNCES OF BOILING WATER AND COVER AND LET IT STEEP FOR 7 MINUTES UNTIL IT IS DARK AS COFFEE.IT IS A WONDERFUL CUP OF TEA WITH A LOVELY TEA TASTE. I LIKE MINE WITH MILK AND SWEETENER.I AM SO HAPPY THAT I FOUND THIS.AND IT'S REALLY GREAT THAT YOU CAN FIND IT ON AMAZON AND OTHER PLACES AS WELL.TREAT YOURSELF AND YOU WILL BE PERSUADED TO CONTINUE HAVING IT IN YOUR HOME.

I’ve been meaning to try Ahmad’s English Tea No. 1 for a while and the tea itself did not disappoint. This is a flavorful, reasonably robust, and relaxing tea that I think works well as an afternoon or evening cuppa. It is a blend of Ceylon, Kenyan, and Assam, though the latter is less evident. There is also bergamot, but it is just a touch, much less than the Ahmad Earl Gray variants. In fact, it’s so little bergamot that I’m not sure I would have been able to identify it as such if I didn’t know it was included in the blend.It brews a dark cup with a dry, earthy aroma and a hint of citrus from the bergamot. Taken straight, it is full bodied, crisp, and bright with fairly low astringency. It isn’t particularly strong but neither is it an overly gentle tea. I find it well balanced. The bergamot mostly registers as brightness, with a light and rather pleasant citrus finish. It takes milk very well, resulting in a richer cup that tastes like a particularly bright English Breakfast blend with a subtle floral essence. It also makes very nice iced tea and cold brewing brings out a bit more of the bergamot. I prefer this tea in the afternoon but I think it could also work in the morning for those who aren’t AM Assam groupies.My only real issue is the packaging. Considering how good Ahmad’s loose leaf teas usually are and how they seem to largely cater to tea drinkers from the Middle East and Eastern Europe, I am at a loss as to why they use American style tea bags. Personally I hate these. I hate the stupid string and staple. But mostly I hate that you only get 2 grams of tea instead of the UK or middle eastern standard 3 grams. If you are used to British teabags or you brew your loose tea strong, you may find this tea too weak simply due to the missing gram of tea. I recommend using 5, yes 5, teabags when brewing a pot if you are a regular tea drinker. If brewing in a mug, (my regular one holds around 12 oz), one teabag can stretch enough but you will want to leave it for a good 8 minutes or so. As much as I like the tea, and to be sure it is way better than teas in these bags at American supermarkets, this packaging will probably prevent it from being a regular for me. I may seek out the loose leaf version of this instead.

I was introduced to this product through my dentist. I had a tooth pulled and they gave me a couple bags to bite for a couple days after. They said it helped - maybe stop the bleeding {?} or help the gum heal. Anyway I liked the tea so much I wanted to keep it on hand just for drinking. It is refreshing.

Okay, here it goes.. the Ahmad English Tea is my absolute favorite black tea without a doubt. I'm somewhat of a tea connoisseur, I've tried a lot of teas over the years at all different price points, even the most expensive teas don't compare to Ahmad.I've found this tea brand in a European Grocery store for the first time years ago, and has been looking for a steady supply since. This is a staple in my home and I usually have at least 2 extra boxes in my pantry.This tea has a strong taste, it is bold and rich without being bitter. Everyone I served this tea to raves about it too. If you're still thinking about it, just give it a try and you will not be disappointed.

Good taste and nicely packed. I'm glad they're not individually packed as that just provides more waste. They have a nice tag so I don't have to fish out the teabag. They make a decent mug of tea, not too strong or too weak. I also just found these at my local Indian market. I bought some with cardamom and I will definitely buy these again.
