Review: Un té delicioso que tiene excelente aroma y a buen precio.
Review: I have been ordering this tea for more than a year now. We are big tea drinkers and consider us a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to tea taste. This black tea has a wonderful aroma. We drink it every morning sometimes with cream sometimes without. So far I have more than 10 lb of it. The honey colored tea in your cup is a great tasting tea especially since it is offered for a reasonable price per pound. We used to order Ostfriesen tea from Germany but it is becoming rare to find and very price. This tea matches up to the Ostfriesen tea very well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is OPA?**
A: Orange Pekoe A - the largest leafed grade. Orange does not refer to the flavor. I bought this tea after hiking the tea plantations in Sri Lanka and tasting the different grades. This one tests very good and full flavored to me. We were told that the larger the leaf, the better, which is why you buy loose leaf tea.  Tea bags have a lot of tiny pieces.

**Q: Can this be used for kombuca? Is it flavored? Does it contain caffine?**
A: Yes, it can be used for kombucha. No, it isn’t flavored. Yes, it contains caffeine.
For kombucha, avoid Earl Grey because it has bergamot oil in it, which can harm the bacteria. Avoid any other teas with flavoring for the same reason.

**Q: What is the date of the manufacture on the tea?**
A: I usually order more of this tea before I run out, so I usually have a full box on hand before I use up the currently open box. It looks like the last time I ordered any was in December 2018. The date range on that box is 5/3/2019-5/3/2022. So the last box I got was dated (had an expiration date) of several months (to several months and 3 years, if that can be
believed) later.

**Q: Is the opa (considered) better than the regular Ceylon or just different? How so?**
A: OPA is large leaf Ceylon tea, the regular consists of smaller cut leaf. I like them both equally.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by F***G on 14 December 2025*

I wrote a review on another Ahmad tea, but this one deserves its share of praise. I purchased this because I was looking for a plain black tea for iced tea. I had this sent to me and once it arrived, I had to know......was it worth the money? I popped open the bag and took one smell, then one look and I knew I hit the bullseye with this tea. I dug out my big pan to steep it in and got to work. I was so happy to find a black tea with no fluff, but the taste test was my Iast test.,... I brewed it as directed on the Ahmed web site, and pulled out my favorite tea mug ( because everything is better in that ONE tea mug :)) And I poured it through the strainer into said mug....not even waiting for cream or sugar.....and BAM! the tea hit my taste buds and for a minute I think I checked out! It was what I have been looking for such a long time. You know how you go to a restaurant and have something, then spend your time searching for that same taste, flavor and response....well, that my friend is what this tea was for me. I will never buy crappy, grocery store tea dust bags again! I still don't know how I never knew about this brand of tea before.....but, like I said I. another loose tea review, I am from the land of hot beverages are a sin and therefore not to be partaken of (Utah). I'm just happy I found my new, sinful hot beverage BFF :)
