Taylors of Harrogate Yorkshire Gold Loose Leaf Tea, Kilo Bag, 35.27 Ounce (Pack of 1)Rainforest AllianceRainforest AllianceRainforest AllianceRainforest Alliance

Being picky about tea, I found this blend at my favorite tea garden. When the tea garden closed I looked urgently for where I could get this blend and happily found it! Not only do I drink it hot every morning but have concocted a delicious sweet tea with this blend that is very refreshing.This larger size is very well insulated and keeps the tea fresh, no matter how long it is stored.I have had great difficulties getting this size - which is my only frustration with the product.It is a truly classic tea blend and I hope it is always made available!

Excellent flavor, only need a teaspoon for one full bodied cuppa.

I will always keep YG in my tea tin!

good solid flavor. would purchase again.

I always use Taylor’s but they fouled up my last order so I tried York. I am a new consumer of York now

Yorkshire Gold is the best

I like the taste but it is just above average so 3 stars but really two or one star for quality - it is more of the powder then any tea leaves so goes through my tea decanter . Mild taste , no bitterness , good with bit of milk .

I am a lifelong black tea ☕️ drinker, but being American, Lipton tea bags were all I knew till my 30s when I tried the Twinings made for the USA. So much better but in my 40s I tried an English import, PG Tipps, which I gather is the Lipton of the U.K. You Stateside people who snobbish it up about drinking this, put the noses down. Drink a cup of Lipton then shut it. U.K's worst (to some) is impossible to beat here. 🇬🇧I am 62 now and since that first box of Tipps, never touched another non U.K. tea except for a few (USA based) British Tea Store specialties like Huckleberry black tea. Just for illustration, I rarely drink Tipps except for the now and again quick cup and a superior iced tea, my taste for a flavorful and strong morning cup are an imported BRITISH tea, Taylors of Harrogate pure Assam loose leaf. I enjoy Bewley's Irish Breakfast blend and the U.K. Twinings import version of English Breakfast now and again, and enjoy trying new-to-me imported blends from Scotland and Ireland as well as England, and singles like Nigiri, Assams from specific tea gardens, etc. Just to let you know, I love a good strong black tea throughout my day starting with the first eye opening breakfast pot.I had been mulling over trying the two Yorkshire loose teas, Red and the more expensive Gold and finally pulled the trigger on both.These teas are not the normal teas a loose tea drinker expects to get at all! One who drinks a lot of teas has learned that (arguably to some) bag teas are the sweepings so to speak (not literally!), the small broken leaf bits and there is a lot of powdery stuff. Loose leaf tea are the whole tightly curled leaves and broken ones too, unavoidable in packing and handling, but whole or broken they are distinctly leaves, dried curled leaves.Both Red and Gold have nothing resembling leaves, broken or otherwise. The best I can describe them are tiny, almost round granules of tea. Not powder, but granules, very odd looking to anyone used to loose LEAF teas. If you use a pot without tightly woven infuser or one with almost invisibly tiny holes, the strainer holes in the spout won't even begin to keep you from filling your cup full of tiny tea granules.Unless you like tea that is literally coal black and so strong that the strength overwhelms the delicious flavor, try a pot or cup with the recommended measurements, to test, but if you enjoy a less black, less ridiculously strong cup, cut back just a bit. No "teaspoon for the pot" extra LOL. I love a strong, assertive tea, like my beloved Assam, but this stuff is the tea that may curl your hair.All that said, it is delicious once you find that "sweet spot" of tea amount and steeping time. Do NOT steep extra time by the way. This stuff is rocket fuel. I highly recommend both flavors, just don't expect nor treat it as a regular loose leaf tea.
