Yellow Label Black Tea | International Blend | Loose Leaf Tea | Black Tea | Compatible for Chai | 450 Grams (Pack of 1)

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I found this tea to be good. There was no place to get the regular Lipton loose tea (used since the seventies for drinking and recipes) so I ended up with this in desperation after trying bagged “dust.” It’s grainy; it’s not tea leaves. The packaging is a foil paper so I put that bag into a ziplock bag, and it’s stayed really fresh even with only myself using the tea. I find it to have a ‘buttery’ smooth flavor, really very smooth. I use just a little over half a coffee tablespoon scoop for a five cup coffee/tea maker and I put an extra cup out to make three 12-oz cups. I have alway used vanilla bean snippets with tea and coffee brewing. An inch long piece lasts almost a month with daily use. Just rinse and let dry, put it int basket again (in a filter) with my next brewing. When the bitter tannins come through, it’s time for a new snippet of vanilla bean.It’s not for vanilla flavor, it’s to “tame” the bitter tannins, thank you Bert Greene cookbook for that tip. I really was surprised to find this tea so pleasing, and it’s going to be a staple for me now that I’ve tried it. I don’t know how it’s made into pellets or why, must be to keep it from turning to dust maybe? If that’s it then it works, imho. A surprise really good purchase!

Brew this with moka pot, got perfect cup of HongKong style milk tea!

Nice to make fresh brew tea. Dont have to worry about the micro plastics that are in tea bags

The lipton tea boxes very crushed..

I do not know what happened to this Lipton Tea. It did not taste the same, it did not respond to our tea making process as usual, the tea was cloudy and just tasted bad. Our tea has been brewed and processed the same for over 50 years of marriage and never has it tasted as bad as our last box from Lipton.it has forced us to look for alternative tea. The only tea plantation in the USA is in Charleston SC. You can buy loose tea from the Charleston Tea Company if you have had the same results we have had. This is a sad day for serious tea drinkers, you have a hard time finding loose tea in the stores. My guess is the current generation does not brew their own tea. Walmart sells gallon jugs of sweet and non-sweet tea and it seems to sell very well. We hate that Lipton has a problem.

Enjoying this tea daily. It's strong and I am enjoying it immensely.

great tea we are using it from long time , first time ordered online but this was little pricey then the stores.

It tastes just like the tea bags I'm used to!It makes my taste buds happy.
