Taylors of Harrogate Yorkshire Red, 160 Teabags

One of the great delights of life, is coming home from a long day's work and brewing hot, steamy, cup of this golden goodness. The taste is smooth, but still slightly robust. It doesn't require the addition of milk or sugar to be palatable. It tastes best when one drinks it straight. There is somewhat of a caffeine boost, but nothing overpowering like coffee. Hardly any calories, and no guilt.

I bought this to make quality ice tea, but went ahead and tried a teabag as a hot tea. It is really good, strong & flavorful. It was very fresh and I'm also thinking some of my other tea is getting stale. But this Yorkshire red will make great ice tea this summer and I'll use it for hot tea also.Be sure and buy the 80, 160 or 240 sizes that seem more like the original UK sizing. There is a box of 100 that is probably more designed to sell in the US (lists ounces in addition to grams). 80 bags of the good stuff weights 250 gms. 100 bags of the US stuff only weighs 220 grams, and may not hold the same quality tea in addition to holding a lot less tea per bag. It is very common for European companies (especially tea, cosmetics, food items etc) to put the same name on the label but with very different and less quality ingredients to ship to the US. So be sure and not buy the cheap bags.My review is specifically for the 80, 160, 240. Mine is a box of 160, which I HIGHLY recommend

I bought black tea to cut down on my coffee intake. I chose this brand because it's the most commonly approved tea among the British, and I figure they would know.I drank this everyday for a year. Of all the black teas I've tried, this and Twinings were the best for daily consumption.In terms of conservation of materials... individually wrapped tea bags with a string are less eco-friendly. Having said that, I find the lack of a string to be a bit annoying in the morning, and you have to be more careful to find a dry way to store over 100 loose bags of tea. ... that part was less than awesome.Value for money? Yeah. This wins. For convenience though? I'd prefer individually wrapped, eco-unfriendly packets.

This is a staple in many British households. I am from Scotland (living in the US) and love a STRONG cup of tea. I usually need 3 teabags of an American brand to get a decent cuppa. I only need one teabag in my bubba keg and I am good to go! The price is very reasonable and worth it to me for a great cup of tea that keeps me going throughout the day!

I just got this tea and and I really like it. It has a lighter than most Ceylon tea flavor. I like the smoothness of it. It's not biting or bitter. It's my favorite Ceylon tea so far. Some Ceylon teas are a little bit hard on my stomach. This one is not at all. It also seems to be real consistent.

Oh no! This tea guzzler ran out of tea on a busy week and couldn't get to the store - so tacked on this item to an order of misc. stuff for next-day delivery - tea deprivation averted. Since my local store's biggest box of this brand is 40-count, it didn't register in my head that the 160-count box in my amazon order would be a heck of a lot more. I had only noted the better savings per teabag on the delivery order compared to the same brand at the store. Imagine my surprise to discover the restaurant-sized box of teabags that arrived at my door - a happy surprise, I decided, since I go through a lot of tea. While Yorkshire Gold is considered the premium-quality, smoother-tasting tea, I ordered the Yorkshire Red, which I prefer for its sharp, robust taste that holds up well to added half & half (don't tell my doctor). So now... on a bitter cold, winter morning, I'm content to jump-start my day indoors with a hot cuppa Yorkshire Red as I write this review - ahhh!

WHY? Because you will notice the GOLD teabags do not have a string. For this reason, I almost gave it 4 stars. HOWEVER, the brewed tea is quite good, so I felt it was unfair to take away a full star rating. In my opinion, Yorkshire-RED is my tea of first choice - its taste is incredible and is more bold and full bodied. I literally can drink it all day. So...I now have ample amounts of GOLD and RED, and will be set with morning & afternoon tea for a while. I will say this, for the price - and the quality of either teas - Yorkshire is the best deal around. This is a tea that I will proudly serve to my guests. I don't see myself purchasing any other brand black tea for a very VERY long time - if ever. Enjoy with English or Italian style biscuits!

Very good, not acid on the stomach. My morning tea.
