Bigelow Darjeeling Blend Tea, 20-Count Boxes (Pack of 6)

Good value vs. the store shelf!

Very good flavor

Darjeeling tea is delicious and a great tea for afternoon drinking, and the flavor of this brand is very good..Annoyingly, this batch frequently has defective tea bags that leak loose tea into my cup, forcing me to strain my tea after it steeps. I'd buy cheaper, loose tea, if I wanted to do that.

My favorite tea is Darjeeling and it's difficult to find in the grocery store anymore, so I am pleased I can purchase through Amazon. Bigelow is a favorite brand.

If you like tea as I do, you will really like this tea. This is not flavored or blended. Sure, I know it is "bag" tea and not "loose", and I know all about all the other things like the flush (harvest), the cut and such, but you don't have to be a tea "snob" to like this tea. I find that if I brew it with less than boiling water -around 190-200 degrees (just boil and wait a minute after pouring the water in the cup before adding the bag) and steep for 3 minutes, it comes out perfect. If I do want to sweeten it, I use orange blossom honey and it is great! Best of all, I didn't break the bank to get tea that I could enjoy. You can spend more, a lot more, and get "better", but I am perfectly happy with this because it is good tea, and at the rate I drink it, it is saving me a bunch of money. To me, that makes it taste even better!
