That first sip was a delicious memory lane moment.
A delicious memory lane moment - that was what I experienced when I first tried this tea.I grew up enjoying a loose tea brew from the tea pot whenever I visited my grans. My gran past away and I never saw the teapot again. From then on, tea was only brewed with teabags. I struggled to enjoy teabag brewed tea and my enjoyment of tea disappeared to the point I refused tea for many years.After a teapot was recently introduced to our home, I gave Ahmad English Breakfast tea a try. I left the loose tea leaves stewing for several minutes in the teapot, poured my wife and I a cup each, added a splash of milk and took a sip. We both smiled. This is what good tea tastes like.In that first sip I was transported back to childhood tea at my grans. And now I enjoy a delightful cup of tea and all the health benefits it brings. I’ve even got some in cup infusers so if it’s tea for one, no problem.This tea is nice black or with milk. I enjoy both depending on my mood. The box, although not important looks nice but I’m looking at a better storage solution to keep the tea fresh and tasty.On final thought is I think this has to be better for the environment - no tea bag means less materials and manufacturing processes are required for the tea and I’m not throwing teabags away - some which apparently are made from plastic and even the paper ones apparently use plastic to seal the tea bag.Anyway, I hope you enjoy this tea as much as our household does.
Q**A
My favourite tea
Absolutely superb tea, of unmistakable quality! For starters, the flavour far smoother or milder to Earl Grey. This tea has whole tea leaf rolled, you can see them when the tea is brewed, no tea "dust", or sub-par mess, like twigs, just the whole tea leaf. The flavour of the tea itself is smooth - it might be Ceylon tea, but far softer and more rounded than even Ahmad's own Ceylon tea. And the orange blossom flavour is a touch of pure magic to this tea! Love, love, love! Purchased it now 3 times, and now it's my go-to tea, along with Ahmad "Jasmine green" tea.All in all, well worth the price, and worth a try.

Ahmad 100g Green Tea, Jasmine, in metal caddy - nice tasting green tea, not much jasmine flavour
I have like green and flavoured green teas for a long time and have grown to prefer loose leaf tea over tea bags. Yes, it does take a little while longer to prepare a brew but I feel the results are worth the effort.This tea is nicely packaged in a metal caddy with the tea arriving sealed in a container inside. On opening, there was a subtle fragrance and the leaves looked and felt dry and fresh.This tea needs a good 4 minutes to brew and allow full flavour to develop. One teaspoonful is sufficient for a large cup/small mug for one person. I did test with 1.5 and 2 spoonfuls but the brewed flavour was not really much different so I'm sticking with 1 teaspoonful. After brewing, the leaves could be seen to have expanded to more than double their size.Taste - this was a nice, light tea with a refreshing taste and no dry aftertaste. It is definitely one of the better teas I have tasted over the years and is far superior to green/flavoured green tea bags. This is a tea that is perfect for any occasion.I would certainly buy this tea again in the future when I am looking for a light-tasting beverage in a small quantity. However, and the biggest disappointment for me, is that the jasmine flavour was far too mild for my taste. It is certainly there, even in the perfume, but I would prefer a jasmine tea that really tastes heavily of jasmine. I have given this product a 4 star rating only because of the mild jasmine taste. As a green tea, it is worthy of 5 stars and I can certainly recommend it for people who enjoy a light-tasting beverage.

Great tea!
I have spent a lot of time and money trying to find the perfect tea for my taste and it just so happens to be one of the cheapest. Such a lovely round flavour with lifting notes and makes a good strong cup too. Love it.

It's ok, nothing more
I've tried many many loose leaf teas in the search for THE ONE and this is not one of the best. It's ok, but I'd say not even on a par with the Gold/premium supermarket own range if loose teas.

Very tasty

The delivery time was excellent, and the packaging was secure.
Step 1: Warm the teapot with hot water. Having a cold teapot will cool the water so the tea won’t brew properly. Give the water a little swirl around and then pour it away. Step 2: Use a teaspoon or tea measure to scoop the loose tea into the teapot. We recommend one teaspoon per person and one extra teaspoon for the pot. Step 3: Fill your kettle with freshly drawn water and bring it to the boil. Step 4: Pour the water straight onto the tea and pop a tea cosy over the pot to keep it as hot as possible. Leave for a minimum of four minutes to help it brew properly. Step 5: Give the pot a quick stir to mix it up a little bit and then serve. Add milk, lemon or sugar and enjoy your cup of Ahmad Tea.
