  4. Cd Henderson –

    Product:
    Service: Shipped from the U.K. to U.S.A, arrived quickly, although I wish the teas could be shipped in a box; I don’t trust my postal service not to crush the tea in transit. I would be willing to pay a bit more for shipping to be sure the tea would be safe.

  5. bob1 (verified owner) –

    Quite subtle and complex. Blends nicely with other black teas when the mood takes me. Good with or without milk.

  6. Jake (verified owner) –

    Product: An excellent, full flavoured and malty tea to kick-start us in the morning
    Service: generally very good. Good alternatives offered if stocks are low.

  7. brian spink (verified owner) –

    This is currently my favourite tea; I drink five pots a day without milk. Smooth and characterful without being overpowering or bitter. Seven day delivery an improvement on previous order; I get really grumpy if I have to drink inferior tea!

  11. John Tugman (verified owner) –

    Product: Pleasantly surprised, a second flush Assam with proper second flush character.
    Service: Informative website & good teas. Would have liked to have seen an example of the tins / caddies before purchase. Tins are functional but not as impressive as the Whittard’s Caddies

    Product:
    Service: Payment at Check regularly proves problematic and when attempting to contact via telephone there is seldom a person to speak to.
    Vendor response: I am sorry that you have problems at the checkout. We do check this on a regular basis. Should you wish to raise a query we are here during office hours. You are free to leave a message should you call out of hours so that we can return your call as soon as possible.

    Product: Definately in my top five teas. It’s very good, sometimes needs a bit more steeping but worth the extra minute or two. Also very good for hooking new tea drinkers.
    Service: The tea is always as described, it gets shipped quickly, and the web site is easy to use.
