Taj Mahal Tea by Brooke Bond | Loose Tea | Black Tea | Compatible for Chai & Milk | Premium Blend | Refreshing Taste | 900 Grams (Pack of 2)

Lovely and fragrant.

This is the best tea. I don't use as much as the directions say. It was a little strong for me. The flavor and aroma as wonderful. My new favorite tea!

Tea has a wonderful flavor. I drink daily in chai masala. The box was damaged on my recent order, and I asked for a refund which was granted by the seller as this item is non returnable. Will continue to order from this seller in future.

Whether served as British hot tea or American southern sweet iced tea, this is the best tea anywhere. Every time my British husband makes sweet tea with this my southern friends and family all want to know what he did differently because it is so much better than what they have made for decades. He says it is simply the tea that you begin with. Instead of the dust you get in most tea bags, you actually see little rolled tea leaves in Taj Majal. It is soooo good. The very best.

Enough Indian and English people have told me that Brooke Bond and Taj Mahal are perfectly fine teas, more than 95% as good as the best, etc, so I finally had to order this Taj Mahal loose tea. They were right, it is *very* good tea and quite a bargain as well! I do like a strong, full-bodied tea and sometimes prepare a masale for chai or add orange peel, vanilla, or other spices and herbs to the morning pot. This tea really stands up and is a good choice for drinking plain with milk or Indian style. It arrives vacuum-packed in a foil (mylar?) bag which is not recloseable, but it's such a bargain it would be nitpicking to complain about the need to repackage upon opening. :)

Weird green leaves in my packet. This is the FIRST time (in decades) when I have come across green leaves in black fermented tea. I will not return the package. How can I anyway? In any case, I don't think the taste will be affected. Bad quality control? ---------------------------- Update: The taste seems off too. (Note: I've been drinking Indian chai for more than 60 years and Taj Mahal has been my favored brand for the last 25 years) Time to go for another brand, I guess. Disappointed :(

We tried black tea from American supermarkets but it wasn't the same. Something about how they process it makes Taj Mahal perfect for a delicious cup of chai. Recipe for 6 cups of tea: 4c 2% milk 2c water 6 tablespoons Taj Mahal tea grounds 6 tablespoons sugar 4 cardamom pods, cracked open 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger Combine and heat on med-high Bring to a boil 3 times, you should see a significant color change after the 3rd boil Strain out the grounds, and aerate by pouring from a height into a tea mug Enjoy with biscuits (shortbread-style cookies) or alone!

If you want to prepare tea in bags this is the best tea you can get. The quality of the leafs is great. Though, for making tea in a samowar you need tea with bigger leafs. This one is too strong to keep it for long period in hot water.
