Dilmah Tea Premium Decaffeinated Ceylon Tea | 50 Bags, Decaf Tea Bags | Caffeine-Free Breakfast Tea

I've been drinking Decaf tea for over 10yrs and I've tried lots of different types all ranging in price, leaf and brand.This is my favourite. Unfortunately decaf tea in my experience can be a little bit bland so I was very happy to try this. I now buy it all the time. HOWEVER if Mr Ahmed is out there, the tea doesn't need to be individually packaged and also please do a bigger box. Amazon struggle to protect the small ones, nevermind 2 or 3 when I buy in bulk.

So pleased to be able to get hold of decaffeinated Ceylon tea. This is my favourite and I used to buy it in Sri Lanka but for some reason it’s not been available in the supermarkets there for some years. It’s amazing to be able to get it here in the UK so easily and quickly!

A fast delivery and good tea

It’s not obvious from the taste that this is a decaf tea. The ceylon taste is only subtly different from a breakfast assam- it’s a little less malty, a little smoother maybe, but it’s in the same ballpark, and if you served somebody this with milk and told them it was just regular breakfast tea, they’d likely believe you. It’s very pleasant, and it can certainly be drunk as a black tea and it doesn’t need to be hidden by milk to make it palatable.The picture on the box shows a glowing, almost reddish brew, more pale than a rooibos, but even after you’ve brewed these teabags for only a few seconds, you get a much darker brown colour out of them which again makes it look like a ‘normal’ tea.Each teabag has an individual tag, handy for dipping into a mug and removing without a spoon. However each teabag isn’t individually bagged, all fifty come in one sealed foil liner, so if you’re buying these for catering or presentation purposes (for example at a b-and-b) that might be an unwanted omission. But for keeping the amount of waste down overall, I think it’s a good move.Unfortunately, pleasant though this tea is, it’s really a bit too ordinary, even if the decaf factor is a bonus. The current asking price of six quid for a pack of fifty teabags seems a little bit too steep, and it’s on that basis it falls just short of five stars for me.

I used two bags as I like strong tea and it tastes really nice, maybe even better than Birchalls. Will return.

This tea has a most perfect taste. Well worth trying if you haven't already.

These tea bags were dissapointing, they did not have the distinctive taste of Ceylon tea at all, rather much like the flavour of a cheaper decaf tea without paying a premium price.
