Five Roses Smooth Ceylon Blend 100s Tagless

I have been drinking this tea for some years now, since I had previously lived in South Africa. I have recently moved to the UK and I have found this tea hard to beat. Tea is a subjective thing, like most 'tastes', so I will try and describe Five Roses Tea, as best I can. It has a slight 'nip' to it. I am not sure how this flavor is achieved, but I find some teas without 'bite' a little bland. The color is deep and rich and the aroma is lovely. I have even tested myself by sipping various teas blindfolded. (Yes I know extreme, but I am a tea lover). The only way to find out how it tastes is to try it and see if you like it yourself. I have ordered this tea twice from Amazon the first time it arrived very quickly, the second not so quick at all. So delivery time is hit and miss I reckon.

I love this tea.

A really nice smooth, quality tea. I enjoy it without milk.

I gave it 4 stars not because it's a bad but purely because it's not the African blend which for some reason Amazon don't sell.

When you’re far from home, sometimes a little taste that reminds you of there is what is needed. Went down a treat both in terms of the tea and the memories it brought back.

Although I am a Rooibos addict, I just adore this 5 Roses tea. These are the only two teas I drink. The taste and aroma of Five Roses.....anyone who has lived in South Africa knows how delicious this tea is.

I'm told (by my other half... I am a wretched failure as both a Brit and a South Africa and don't drink tea) that this is the only tea that doesn't taste like "twigs and sticks" when you forget your cup and leave it to cool. Makes Yorkshire Gold taste like swill. Sigh. Looks like I'm going to have to keep forking out for the stuff. I can say it draws well, usually... seeing as I'm the tea maker, even if it's all "twigs and sticks" to me.

DO NOT waste your money on this Five Roses product utterly flavourless, no wafting aroma! I used drink this in Zimbabwe and South Africa from when I was young and it was a premium product. The aroma is so nostalgic. I am going to throw this in the bin as I don't know what's in it! To make it worse you can't return for hygiene reasons. So be warned!

I purchased Five Roses Ceylon Tea as part of my regular household staples, and it never disappoints. This tea has become a familiar and comforting favorite in my home. It has an authentic, well-balanced flavor—strong enough to satisfy, yet still smooth and easy to enjoy. The taste is rich and refreshing without being too overpowering or bitter, making it perfect for both morning and afternoon tea. Preparation is simple, and it pairs beautifully with milk or lemon, depending on preference. The quality is consistent, and it delivers that classic, reliable taste I’ve come to expect over the years. Overall, it’s a dependable, great-tasting tea that I continue to keep stocked in my kitchen.

Great

Five Roses Ceylon tea is exactly what I was looking for in an everyday tea. The 102 tagless teabags make it easy to brew a strong, flavorful cup without dealing with strings or tags, and the Ceylon taste is smooth and balanced, not too bitter or astringent. I appreciate that it’s simple and classic — no unnecessary frills, just a good quality tea that works well with or without milk and sugar. It brews quickly and consistently, and the aroma is pleasant and comforting. The pack size is generous and great for regular use at home or in the office. I’ve been drinking this daily and haven’t had any bitterness, even when I let it steep a bit longer. Overall, this is a great value for a reliable, good-tasting tea. I’ll definitely buy it again.

Best tasting tea in the world

Thank you package found. Love you Welkom. Will be sipping my afternoon five roses with eet sum more buscuits. The heat in New England is too much and only the hot South African five roses tea can quench this heat. The Mother-land tea with a wonderful aroma and fantastic taste👌
