Blackcurrant Burst

What a pleasant surprise! I had ordered and enjoyed, Twinings Black Current Tea Bags. They had been a good price, for 120 bags, in six boxes. So I checked, And they had gone up,ten dollars! Ten! That, to me, seemed like a steep hike. I saw that there were quite a few different brands, of Black Current Tea bags. I studied and found that Ahmed had a similar deal to Twinings for ten dollars less! The ratings were the same, so I held my breath, and tried a new tea brand. Imagine my surprise, to find, that it was, not just, as good, as Twining, but instead, much better! At least twice as good! Better flavor! Not just black tea, but Ahmed, has a black tea blend. And not just Black Current flavor, but real Black Current pieces! Great taste in a tea bag! Ahmed really surprised me!

My wife found this Ahmad Black Current tea in a discount store, and brought some home. We absolutely loved it. Then we couldn't find it any longer. I eventually (should have looked here sooner) found that Amazon had it. Wonderful tea, with a good flavor and amazing aroma.

Ahmad Early Grey 100 pack contained a free sample of their Blackcurrant Burst and now I ordered it, too, by this lot of 6-by-20. Same goes with their Mango Magic. I rotate between the three, depending on my mood. Absolutely delicious.

I have tasted well more than a dozen different flavored teas. Hands down this is my favorite. You don’t go wrong with this tea.

Amazon keeps the score: they just reminded me that I have bought various flavors of particular Ahmad tea 12 times in the last 2-3 years. 20*6*12=1440 tea bags! It is great tea inside and out. I bought few other brands just to try out, but keep coming back to Ahmad, because of its quality and taste. Found out that famous Twinings (perhaps, of decent quality if English production, they have different label, btw), is offered only in American production and version - tea bush branches mulch with no black tea gry taste and strange, weak fruit flavors at extreme price. Ahmad is produced overseas. Quality of an open tea bag is uniform - no sticks or weird objects. Flavor - full bodied. Blackcurrant has the right aroma of fruits ands leaves (comparing to Twinings, where they have no idea what blackcurrants are, "some berry, who cares"). Lemon lime - intense and uplifting. Raspberry - you just want to continue smelling and enjoying your cup...

Very good flavor

The choice on the web page is between 1.5 lb or 20 count? No, it's between blackcurrent and Apple Refresh. This kind of discrepancy leads to returns. It's good tea. My wife has been drinking it for ten years. Be aware however that it goes stale after one year despite the foil packet.

Just great

Each tea bag is individually packed, 20 in a box and half a dozen boxes for this. I used to enjoy blackcurrant tea from Lipton and when I was unable to find it in supermarkets, I switched to Dilmah, which was again unavailable after a while too. My supply of blackcurrant is limited, but I do remember my tastes. Lipton was better than Dilmah but this from Ahmad takes the top spot. The fragrance beats the coffee I made every morning and make a very satisfied night after dinner. I have not tasted any bitterness and would recommend Lotus Biscoff Caramelised Sandwich Biscuits to go with this without adding sugar to the tea. The biscuits brings out the sweetness in the tea, and vice versa like wine and cheese.

I love this tea; it truly bursts with delicious blackcurrant flavour from the fruit pieces.

I've just received the Ahmad Tea Cassis (Lot de 20). ONY ONE BOX !!!! On the picture we clearly see 6 boxes. No indication of back order. Please confirm that I will receive the missing 5 boxes of Cassis Tea. Thank you.

The black tea and blackcurrant flavour really compliment each other without one emerging as dominant. A very refreshing blend.
