Comments on: Twinings Earl Grey Tea K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 25-Count Box http://www.kcupcoffeemaker.com/twinings-earl-grey-tea-k-cups-for-keurig-brewers-25-count-box.html Fri, 05 Nov 2010 10:24:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Scott Kopper http://www.kcupcoffeemaker.com/twinings-earl-grey-tea-k-cups-for-keurig-brewers-25-count-box.html#comment-7470 Scott Kopper Thu, 03 Jun 2010 11:25:18 +0000 http://www.kcupcoffeemaker.com/twinings-earl-grey-tea-k-cups-for-keurig-brewers-25-count-box.html#comment-7470 This tea tastes good, but it is very finely ground and some of that ends up in the cup. I like to use the same tea k-cup 2-3 times to make iced tea and with Twinnigs it doesn't work because there is so little tea in the k-cup (I suppose that's why it is so finely ground - so they can use less) that it ends up too dilute. With Timothy's Earl Grey, on the other hand, there is much more tea in the k-cup which allows for my reuse of 2-3 times and the grounds don't end up in the cup. The taste is about the same except you get more for your money with Timothys. Rating: 3 / 5 This tea tastes good, but it is very finely ground and some of that ends up in the cup.

I got these to have on hand in case I have tea drinking company. I tried them myself, and really like the taste. I won't be giving up my coffee but this was a good change from coffee. I also picked up the twinings regular tea bags in peach black tea and use them in my Keurig as well- boy now those are great! A nice peach flavor. Rating: 4 / 5 I drink coffee- lots of it.

I do not drink coffee, soda or anything else other then tea and water. So I find myself drinking lots of tea. <br /> <br />When I purchased my Keurig, I also bought a selection of teas from Celestial Seasonings, which included their Earl Grey and English Breakfast. After using them up, I decided to try the Earl Grey from Twinings for K-cups but was disappointed. The flavor was quite weak, not to say everyone likes a strong tea, but those who enjoy the sophisticated taste of Earl Grey, often like it to have a bolder taste then what this produced. Also it left a lot of unpleasant tea powder at the bottom of the tea cup which gave the cup of tea an unappealing appearance of being dirty. <br /> <br />I would have just assumed that this was the best a Keurig maker could do to produce a cup of tea if I hadn't already had 2 boxes of Celestial Seasoning teas that produced stronger tea with no muddy appearance. I was quite surprised with this result because I ordered the Twinings tea with the assumption that it would be better then the Celestial Seasoning. <br /> <br />Not my favorite K-cup tea for the Keurig. <br /> <br /> <br /> Rating: 3 / 5 I really enjoy tea, and especially Earl Grey.

"Tea-colored water," was what one person said. We don't know if this is really a problem with the particular product, or simply that the duration of the water flow through the cup is too short to allow the tea to steep properly.

To calibrate this review to your tastes: (1) I like *tea*, plus this one flavoring, not herbs with a little bit of tea -- I'm even finicky about how much Bergamot gets put in. (2) I prefer Twinings to Stash (in bags, not available in K-Cups) for that very reason. Twinings is sightly less expensive than Gloria Jean's or Celestial Seasonings, and has the "cleanest" taste of the three. If you like a "brighter" or more flowery taste, go for the Celestial Seasonings; or if you like a more "complex" or "spicy" taste, choose the Gloria Jean's.
