My treasured cups of this exquisite tea are a huge part of my delight in my day and certainly a reason to get out of bed in the morning. I drink my tea from thin delicate china cups that add to this comforting and satisfying treat in my day.
Growing up in South Asia drinking tea is essential and it’s part of my culture drinking tea makes me very happy and brings memory from my childhood. I have always been on search to find a clean organic tea brand and I’m very happy to come across of this wonderful brand.TARIA and I have been customer since last year, black tea and breakfast tea and it simply became my favorites !! I absolutely love the taste and I enjoy every sip every time I brew it it gives me a peace of mind that I’m drinking a quality, organic clean tea. Thank you for introducing me to this wonderful brand 🙏🏼😊
Shekiba, wow ... thank you so much for sharing this with me - it truly touched my heart. 🙏 I love that Zealong's Black Tea and Breakfast Tea have found a place in your story and that they bring back good memories for you. (I love how tastes and smells can do that!)
Your search for a clean, organic tea that you can truly trust is exactly why we wanted to bring Zealong here to the US. Zealong's commitment to growing every leaf on their certified organic estate in New Zealand, with complete transparency from soil to cup, is something I personally fell in love with when we were living in New Zealand. For me, knowing what's in my cup is super important, and I love the peace of mind that comes with drinking Zealong ... I'm so glad to hear that matters to you too!
Thank you for being part of the Taria family since last year, Shekiba - I am truly grateful!
I have spent years looking for the best black tea. I have sampled all sorts of black tea both from online companies and in person i in the US, UK, France, and Ireland. Without hesitation I can say that Zealong’s black tea is my favorite . It is so flavorful, rich and yet light. It is wonderful with milk or without milk. It needs no sweetener . I find myself looking forward to that first morning cup the night before. Yes, it is that good.
Recently, I purchased the breakfast tea. It too is an excellent tea. I still prefer the black tea, but I reach for the breakfast tea when I want to make a chai tea or if I just want a cup with a slightly darker, slightly smoky taste. I don’t like smoky teas but thie smoky flavor is very slight and just adds to the complexity of the tea. I am still experimenting with this tea but I think it will be perfect iced in the summer with a dash of lemon and lavender honey .
I also appreciate the little notes tucked into my orders. They are not necessary but I love reading them. This company cares about its customers and the quality of its products. Rare these days.
Dear Patricia,
Your beautiful review absolutely made my day—thank you so much for taking the time to share it! I don’t even have the words to tell you how much it means to hear that Zealong’s Black tea has become your favorite after all your years of tea tasting across the world. That is the highest compliment we could ever receive!
I also loved reading how you're enjoying the Breakfast tea—it really is a wonderful counterpoint to the Black. A bit bolder, a touch more robust, and with just the slightest hint of smokiness, it’s a blend that offers real depth and character. I’m so glad to you are enjoying it as well!
And thank you, too, for your kind words about the notes we include. It’s such a joy getting to connect with our customers in a small but personal way. Knowing that those little touches are noticed and appreciated is truly encouraging.
We're so grateful to have you as part of the Taria community, and thank you again!
It's not Earl Grey but it will do.
Ha! Love it ... you are right. It's not Earl Grey, but we do love Zealong's smooth and naturally sweet Black tea. I love to prepare it both hot and iced ... especially in this HOT June weather. Thanks so much for letting us know, Rick! We are super grateful for you. :)
Very good smooth and delicious tea. I drink it every morning with my breakfast. I look forward to it and never have any else!
Lisa!!! Thank you for again sharing your thoughts on Zealong's tea! 😊 'Never have anything else' might be one of the best compliments a tea could receive! I love that it's become such a cherished part of your morning routine and that you genuinely look forward to every single day.
Thank you again for being such a wonderful part of the Taria family - it truly means so much!
