Twinings English Breakfast Reviews

~~Who are Twinings?~~ In 1706 Mr Thomas Twining first set up business as a tea merchant in the London Strand. In the age where coffee shops were most popular, Thomas Twining worked tirelessly to promote tea and change people's perceptions. Remarkably, the firm still trade from the same address in London Strand to this day, some 300 years ...  Read the complete review

~ HAVING A CUPPA ~ Recently I have gone back to the phase of drinking lots of tea. I usually prefer coffee but the last few weeks it has been the tea that I have been craving. At work we have horrible tea in machines so everyone brings in their own tea bags or goes to the café and buys other ones. It is a lot cheaper to go buy a ...  Read the complete review

~~~INTRODUCTION ~~~ I started writing this review yesterda afternoon as Twinings Breakfast Tea Bags are a regular addition to my shopping basket. Half way through writing the review, however, I had to go out to. Whilst in the car Don McLean's "American Pie" came on the radio. I hadn't heard it for ages and instantly found ...  Read the complete review

Ok, so- it's 5pm, I've just come home from a very long day at work. First things first- the kettle goes on. Awaiting the boiling of the kettle I then do my normal aftershift abseiling, metaphorically speaking. Now, I must say- I do like my tea. I'm an English bird when it comes to tea. Although I do like coffee too, if this has any play in ...  Read the complete review

I love this tea! I can no longer return to the rubbish I used to drink. For many a long year I was drinking anything from Spars own brand to good old Tetley tea! And yet all those never seemed to hit the spot like this tea does! It doesny have a bitter flavour like some other bags have and its smooth to drink. Dont ask me ...  Read the complete review

I absolutely love Twinings' version of the English Breakfast tea. The bags contain enough leaves to make a good strong cup of tea, full of flavour. I drink this with a splash of milk but not too much milk because I found that this can mask the flavour of the tea. One thing I found about this tea is that it doesn't leave a sour after taste in ...  Read the complete review

These come in either a small black box or bigger black box depending on the size you but there is a gold band across the top saying "Twinings". I tend to get a box of 50 for under £1.50 which although is pricey they are not my everyday tea, I use others too. I used to be a typhoo only gal but to cut a long story short I was ...  Read the complete review

It was in 1706 that Thomas Twining began his business as a tea merchant in the London Strand from where the firm has traded continuously ever since. My opinion of Twinings Teas varies a lot depending on the particular blend. Whilst I regard Twinings Earl Grey as still one of the best blends around, many other Twinings varieties leave a lot to be ...  Read the complete review

am, and have always been, a person addicted to tea. It is a rare event when I find a tea that I'm not fond of, and it is an impossible one when I find a tea I don't like (it has never happened). When I was a little girl, my family thought I was a little strange with my addiction - whoever heard of a five year old who would rather have a cup of tea ...  Read the complete review

I probably went about become a tea drinker in a very roundabout and unexpected way. I had been in Vienna for six months and had been working from home which meant that I was getting through inordinate amounts of black coffee. Amazingly (well the Viennese thought it was amazing!) I was not a tea drinker, but due to the adverse effects the ...  Read the complete review
