5.0 out of 5 stars Really great tea!!!
I first discovered Bentley's tea by purchasing an assortment of tea like this in order to have a nice container. What I was surprised by was how great the teas are. The teas (except for the green tea) are black-tea based and all but the English Breakfast are flavored (none are herbal like a previous review implied). The black tea base is the smoothest black tea I've...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite as good as I thought
I've had Bentley's teas before and enjoyed them very much. I thought these tasted a bit stale. I will use them for Sun tea and put double the amount I usually use to bring out the flavor. The flavor is very light and as the tea bags are paper wrapped and not foil, the flavor inter-mingles with others in the tin. I would not order these again. Louise

5.0 out of 5 stars Really great tea!!!, February 13, 2007
I first discovered Bentley's tea by purchasing an assortment of tea like this in order to have a nice container. What I was surprised by was how great the teas are. The teas (except for the green tea) are black-tea based and all but the English Breakfast are flavored (none are herbal like a previous review implied). The black tea base is the smoothest black tea I've ever encountered. It really has an outstanding flavor. The flavored versions seem to use this tea base and add a flavor above it. The flavor isn't as strong as in many teas. However, given how good the black tea that Bentley's uses tastes, it shouldn't be.

By ordering this off Amazon, I'm not paying any more than tea costs in the supermarket on sale, and getting far better tea. Hope you enjoy this tea as much as I do!

3.0 out of 5 stars Flavors are good, if you like it all tasting the same..., May 31, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bentley's Finest Tea Classic Collection, 120-Count Tea Bag in Assorted Tins (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
The flavored teas are the reason I purchased this item. While the flavors in the peach and raspberry are some of the best I've had in black tea, the Earl Grey is only ok.
The problem is that the teabags are loose packed in the tin and the flavors all blend so that the English breakfast and even the Earl Grey do not taste like they are supposed to. In my opinion it becomes rather yucky tasting. Also, the teabags have rather a small fill, so they really are only suitable for a 6 oz teacup to be strong enough (for this reviewer) with a 3 minute steep. That may sound nitpicky, but by comparison some teabags are sufficient for much larger cup sizes.

If you cannot tell the difference between Earl Grey and English Breakfast something must be wrong. Either portions are to small all tea is too old and lost its flavor. Triumph of form over content!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great price for two, November 29, 2006
By 
R.P. (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
I bought this as a Christmas gift, only needing one, but it was great to get two for this price and have a spare on hand for last-minute gifts. The tin is nice enough for a gift and there are many flavors to choose from, so the person you give it to is bound to find some they like!

This review is from: Bentley's Finest Tea Classic Collection, 120-Count Tea Bag in Assorted Tins (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
I've been drinking lots and lots of tea over the past few months as I work through a low carb diet regime. I had been buying varieties at the grocery store and decided it would be economical to simply buy a large sampler. With that in mind I randomly chose Bentley's Finest Tea Classic Collection. I couldn't have been more pleased with the quality of the tea. The peach tea is in fact my favorite in the collection but the English Breakfast Tea made me a fan of that flavor where I never had been before. I'll be watching for other tea collections from Bentley's.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good price but check packaging, February 2, 2010

This review is from: Bentley's Finest Tea Classic Collection, 120-Count Tea Bag in Assorted Tins (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
I bought these for gifts, so I can't speak on the quality of the tea. However, I will say of the 4 I ordered, 3 of the tins had minor scuff marks or dents/dings, and one had rust on the outside. I kept it because there was no time to order another. I will say, price wise, these are half the price of the best price I could find on a similar item from a retail bath store...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent selection as well as value, January 28, 2007
By 
EtJ "the IV" (one most wonderful place) - See all my reviews
Always have enjoyed tea, this selection was well put together. They all are very drinkable. Been using the coffee maker to brew the tea, haven't brewed coffee for quite some time. Tea is sooo much better for one's health. Highly recommended alternative to coffee.
