Lyons Gold 80 Tea Bags - Fast

Great price for imported tea from Ireland that you cannot find in all stores. Gave these as gifts to my aunts as a taste of Ireland. Good tasting tra.

"In Ireland there is a great Lyons Tea vs Barry's Tea debate but once you move across this side of the water you forget about all of that. It doesn't matter what type of tea it is as long as it's not from here." Curious, considering my favorite brand of tea was as the time Lipton black tea. I had to put his word to the test. I purchased both a box of Lyons Gold Blend and Barry's Tea Gold Blend and had them simultaneously delivered. My consensus after brewing a cup of both is I'm fine with either Barry's Tea or Lyons Tea as long as I don't have to drink another cup of Lipton ever. The pure richness of the tea is something I've never had before in a black tea. The aroma is strong and the flavor is bold. Even with milk and honey, the tea flavor is never lessened, only enhanced. It is absolutely wonderful and makes me question how Lipton can make tea so flavorless, needing two or even three bags to even come close to one Lyon's bag in terms of strength. As for Lyons vs Barry's, I'm not Irish enough to enter this debate. However, I can give my two cents after trying both. Barry's Tea is darker in color and has a slightly bitter taste. The bitterness persists with milk and honey. This isn't a negative by any means and only seems to enhance the "tea" flavor of the entire brew. It does seem to taste noticeably stronger than Lyons given the same steeping time and amount of milk/honey added. Lyons Tea is a bit softer in color and flavor, and does not have any indication of bitterness at all, yet still has an incredible bold flavor. It is simply better in my opinion only because I prefer a non-bitter tea to a slightly stronger bitter tea.

Yes, this is the top quality Gold Label product even though it is in a green box. Fresh product with long expiration date of one full year in the future (some other suppliers ship product that is close to the expiration date, so that's the main reason for my 5 star review).

Just wish it had better airtight packaging. Last two orders boxes were crushed and open. Time before that I received a past the best use by date. Still the best tasting tea compared to US brands by far.

They served this in Ireland for tea time and it’s so strong it makes American tea look like water. You can put cream in this and it’s still dark!

I actually drank this tea when I was in Ireland! I loved it then and brought some back home. I found that our grocery was selling it but they were small boxes. That is when I decided to check Amazon.

I loved Lyon's Gold when it was in the red box and used pyramid bags. It was my go to tea, and I would pay any price to get it. They have since changed the formula and put it in standard style tea bags.(Green box) It is not the same tea at all. It is bland and tastes like grocery store brand tea. I am very disappointed that has Lyon's chosen to downgrade what used to be- literally the best tea in the world- to this lesser quality product.

Great product, the best Tea you can get

Aus Irland

Hace años que lo tomo. Pura Irlanda

El embalaje muy escaso.son 2 cajitas de cartón blando con su tapa cuadrada y llegaron las dos bastante arrugadas. tuve que tirar las cajas una pena.porque son bonitas.Deben cuidar más la forma de tratar los paquetes y más si son delicados.Por lo demás el te muy bueno.

Lieferung aus Irland, dauerte etwas..., Verpackung ohne Schäden. Der Tee hat einen sehr guten Geschmack und ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert!! Für mich bisher der beste Tee überhaupt.

Frisch und aromatisch
