Ahmad Tea English Breakfast Loose Leaf Black Tea – 500g Packet

Lovely quality Tea, much better flavour, colour and variety of flavours and aroma. It is so refreshing to drink, not full of dust like a lot of Tea Bags nowadays. I had forgotten just how lovely and enjoyable the right blend makes. Like a warm hug. I highly recommend this Tea, it's great value too.

A delicious memory lane moment - that was what I experienced when I first tried this tea. I grew up enjoying a loose tea brew from the tea pot whenever I visited my grans. My gran past away and I never saw the teapot again. From then on, tea was only brewed with teabags. I struggled to enjoy teabag brewed tea and my enjoyment of tea disappeared to the point I refused tea for many years. After a teapot was recently introduced to our home, I gave Ahmad English Breakfast tea a try. I left the loose tea leaves stewing for several minutes in the teapot, poured my wife and I a cup each, added a splash of milk and took a sip. We both smiled. This is what good tea tastes like. In that first sip I was transported back to childhood tea at my grans. And now I enjoy a delightful cup of tea and all the health benefits it brings. I’ve even got some in cup infusers so if it’s tea for one, no problem. This tea is nice black or with milk. I enjoy both depending on my mood. The box, although not important looks nice but I’m looking at a better storage solution to keep the tea fresh and tasty. On final thought is I think this has to be better for the environment - no tea bag means less materials and manufacturing processes are required for the tea and I’m not throwing teabags away - some which apparently are made from plastic and even the paper ones apparently use plastic to seal the tea bag. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this tea as much as our household does.

Great tea. Lovely flavour but I am going to stop buying this now due to the price. Before Christmas 2025 I was paying under £10 for it. Now in January it went up to around £16 and now suddenly it's £20. Can't justify that.

I do not regard myself as a Tea Expert, but I do know a superlative blend from the run of the mill PG Tips, which incidentally I do not purchase. For the past few months I have been sampling and purchasing a variety of teas, mainly from Ceylon and India, and this is the 3rd blend I have purchased. In writing this review my first comment is that there are insufficient stars to grade this tea, it deserves at the very least three more. Without any doubt in my mind, this is the finest tea I have ever quaffed. it is perfect with or without milk, is beautifully balanced and thirst quenching and is everything I like about the British national drink. My congratulations to the blenders, I will be ordering more pack of this tea for my family. Finally, and I address this to the Ahmed Tea Company, thank you for the best cuppa I have ever had.

I do not normally write many reviews, but felt i had to on this occasion. This Tea tastes like tea use to before, crap dust filled, plastic filled teabags were invented. This tea is like nothing i have ever tasted, utterly amazing, I would absloutely recommend this product. i would give it 10 stars if i could. This will be a regular on going purchase for me. THANK YOU

if you want to return to tea leaves this is a high quality tea. Tasted clean and fresh with a satisfying taste. The package is awkward to use every time you want to make a cup of tea this is because the tea leaves should stay in a dark place, and this packaging provides this. So be prepared to buy a metal tea caddy!

Very disappointed. No real aroma and a very bland taste. I thought I’d try it because of the price and some of the reviews. Maybe I received a bad pack, but the tea looked dry and ok, it was just bland. I’ve had three pots and the same results, time to throw it away. You get what you pay for. Life’s too short for bad tea!

Great value when it's £6.99/500g. I don't understand how it is £7 one month & £20 the next! Honestly, do you think we don't notice?

best taste ever

I had never heard of them (probably because I'm not British), but it was quite good. Its half a kg so it will take a while before i need some more, but I'm certainly planning on buying some more.

This quickly became a favorite not just for the amazing price but for the flavor and strength. I will definitely order again.

I absolutely love this tea. I drink my tea plain — no sugar, no milk, no honey, nothing — so the quality of the tea really matters. When you drink black tea straight, you can immediately tell the difference between a cheap tea and a truly good one. This tea is rich, smooth, flavorful, and strong without having that bitter aftertaste that so many black teas have. That’s what keeps me coming back to it again and again. I buy box after box because tea is honestly my drink of choice, and this one has become a staple for me. The tea leaves themselves are vibrant and fresh tasting. It has body, depth, and a clean finish that tastes high quality from the first sip to the last. I drink it hot, I drink it cold, and I enjoy it every single time. This is absolutely a repeat purchase for me, and I recommend it all the time to other tea drinkers.

Good taste
