Black tea or breakfast tea ?

I have spent years looking for the best black tea. I have sampled all sorts of black tea both from online companies and in person i in the US, UK, France, and Ireland. Without hesitation I can say that Zealong’s black tea is my favorite . It is so flavorful, rich and yet light. It is wonderful with milk or without milk. It needs no sweetener . I find myself looking forward to that first morning cup the night before. Yes, it is that good.
Recently, I purchased the breakfast tea. It too is an excellent tea. I still prefer the black tea, but I reach for the breakfast tea when I want to make a chai tea or if I just want a cup with a slightly darker, slightly smoky taste. I don’t like smoky teas but thie smoky flavor is very slight and just adds to the complexity of the tea. I am still experimenting with this tea but I think it will be perfect iced in the summer with a dash of lemon and lavender honey .
I also appreciate the little notes tucked into my orders. They are not necessary but I love reading them. This company cares about its customers and the quality of its products. Rare these days.

Dear Patricia,

Your beautiful review absolutely made my day—thank you so much for taking the time to share it! I don’t even have the words to tell you how much it means to hear that Zealong’s Black tea has become your favorite after all your years of tea tasting across the world. That is the highest compliment we could ever receive!

I also loved reading how you're enjoying the Breakfast tea—it really is a wonderful counterpoint to the Black. A bit bolder, a touch more robust, and with just the slightest hint of smokiness, it’s a blend that offers real depth and character. I’m so glad to you are enjoying it as well!

And thank you, too, for your kind words about the notes we include. It’s such a joy getting to connect with our customers in a small but personal way. Knowing that those little touches are noticed and appreciated is truly encouraging.

We're so grateful to have you as part of the Taria community, and thank you again!

This is a GORGEOUS TEA! Its flavor is similar to a light floral Darjeeling tea, but better.
It is an experience drinking this tea and should be treated as such. It is a tea that should be savored.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our Black Tea and found it to be such a special experience. Your description of it as "a tea that should be savored" truly warms our hearts because that’s exactly what we aim to create!

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, it means so much to us!

Rich Flavor

I am always on the hunt for a good tea and I found it with this black tea. I guess I a simple gal, but I love the simply rich flavor of this tea. I also love knowing that it's safe to drink and not filled with plastic and ingredients I don't need.

No acidic stomach upset with Zealong teas!

I rarely ever send reviews, and now this is my second review for Zealong teas! I wanted to add that none of the Zealong teas I have tried have caused an acidic upset stomach before I eat breakfast. When I drink any of the other brands of teas that we have in our pantry, I do get an upset stomach and have to eat food immediately. Thank you, Zealong teas! I received another shipment of Zealong teas today that I am looking forward to drinking and offering to our guests.
