The most common types of tea are black tea, white tea, green tea and oolong tea. After water tea is the most widely consumed beverage on the planet. My opinion I have rally enjoyed drinking tea over the past few months and part of me is wondering why I didn't take up drinking it earlier. In all those years spent in cold student digs I never bothered with tea. Looking back it would have been th...more

Premium Review Tea in general: The Best Hot Drink (797 words)
by - written on 01/03/08 (Very useful, 79 readings)
Rating:

Despite suddenly coming back to being a lover of coffee, I have been a lover of tea since I can remember. I love tea because it is warming and I find it has a lovely taste. Unlike coffee, you get no real aftertaste when you drink it, which I like as the immediate flavour is more intense. There are loads of different types of tea available from the most common black tea to white, green and lavender tea. White tea has a floral taste to it and green tea tastes rather authentic. There are other types of tea such as Earl Grey, which has a stronger taste and is a rather posh tea. My Favourite Tea: * Yorkshire Tea * Tetely Tea * PG ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Tickety-Boo Is Spelled With A TEA! (1236 words)
by - written on 16/04/03 (Very useful, 391 readings)
Rating:

I'd call Tickety-Boo a full-bodied cup of tea. They call it a medium blend, though. I'd say, if you like very weak tea, it's not for you, but if you like a good, solid cup of tea brewed by the likes of Yorkshire Tea or PG Tips, then you'll like it. They advise you to steep, or brew, it for the regulation four minutes, and I find it certainly pays to do this, although you'll get a decent cup of tea after perhaps half that time. If you're one of the dunk-teabag-in-mug-and-squeeze-with-teaspoon brigade, you should know that the likelihood is you're not getting a cup of tea, but a cup of dye anyway. So there. I drink my tea black with a ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Tea in general: More tea Vicar? (1086 words)
by - written on 14/04/02 (Very useful, 323 readings)
Rating:

Tea, the great British drink eh? Well it is our most popular hot drink but it sure as heck is not British. Tea has been an item of trade for at least three thousand years. It was first cultivated and brewed in China, and many of the best varieties still come from there. Some of the finest oolongs (a variety of tea) in the world are grown in Taiwan. Japan also produces a considerable amount of green tea, most of which is consumed domestically. It was after the British took up tea drinking that we began cultivating the plants that are native to India in order to have more control over the trade. India, Sri Lanka, and other South Asian countries produce a large ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review The Cup That Cheers (1302 words)
by - written on 11/10/01 (Very useful, 447 readings)
Rating:

Tea, that most evocative drink that is forever associated with cucumber sandwiches and cricket. TYPES:--------------------------------------- There are many different types of tea, both black and green, they in fact all come from the same plant, ’Camellia sinensis’. The differences comes from the area they are grown in and how they are processed. Black tea is the most popular in the western world, have a rich aroma and flavour. In reality the leaves are a dark reddish brown , the leaves are picked and allowed to wither in the hot sun. Then bruised and left to ferment it is during this process their colour, flavour and astringency ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Tea in general: The perfect cup of tea and a sit down (396 words)
by - written on 12/09/09 (Very useful, 12 readings)
Rating:

Tea is a wonderful drink. It comes in a variety of herbal flavours with a variety of things it's good for - chamomile for relaxation, fennel to stimulate breastmilk production, peppermint to gently wake you up, ginger to combat nausea and so on. Regular black tea is the most common in the UK - it's a dried mixture of the leaves of the tea plant and can be bought either loose or in a bewildering variety of shapes of bag, pyramids, squares and round. I'm a little bit OCD so prefer the round bags because I like the way they fit in the bottom of the mug. You can buy it in a range of qualities, but this is one area where the price often reflects the ...  Read the complete review
