I usually stick with straight orthodox Assam, tippy whole leaf, best I can find in volume, for the least I can pay. Took a chance on this Ahmad Imperial, as I’m not averse to a little bergamot. I’ll even drink a solid earl grey if someone else makes it, but just prefer a straight Assam for my high volume all day tea drinking.This is a real winner! It’s predominantly a mix of Darjeeling and Assam as advertised, with just a slight hint of bergamot. If there was any less bergamot I would not taste it at all. Very subtle there. The leaves are quite whole, at least the shippers did not smash my box this time, and it’s just a really fine looking and tasting leaf structure and blend, especially for what appears to be a great regular price. Under, or even around, a dollar an ounce is a good deal for this. It’s straight enough to where I’ll probably just drink through this for a week or so before going back to my regs.Maybe I’m a bit tea high at the moment, but having just opened the bright red box around Christmas kinda just tickled my good cheer. The tea is a winner.Frankly Ahmad is 100% so far for my whole leaf purchases. Many pounds bought and consumed!! I’m now feeling inclined to try another loose black of theirs that I would normally not think of buying.

I mostly purchase tea cultivars of higher grade quality, but still indulge in a good "budget tea" and trust the brand AHMAD.Due to small leaf size I strongly encourage purchasing paper tea bags for brewing if like me, you also hate tea dust at the bottom of your cup. The price for 1lb of tea is a steal! It will last me several months.I will also share that black jasmine tea is actually a rarity even in China. I made this purchase after a sample of a higher grade with actual jasmine buds but $25 for 3.5 oz ... (you judge the price) I loved the tea, but not so much to spend that much for another taste. :)So of course I did my searching and found this listing with the delight in knowing it was AHMAD and the quantity for the price made me pounce! Here is my official review as I am currently sipping my first pot.AROMA: as stated on the box it is with added "jasmine flavoring" so you'll find no buds in this blend. The aroma is that of a cheaper green jasmine tea or that of an orchid candle I have. This may be a red flag for tea "purists". You do get sort of an after taste as well from the jasmine.LIQOUR: light in color (more orange than red) and decently translucent for a flavored tea that is not high grade. Smooth and thick taste as I was generous with my leaf quantity. (I advise not using too much at first as the flavor is not so light)TASTTING: the leaf is similar to an orange pekoe or light Darjeeling. I'm sure AHMAD mostly sources Indian teas as they are a UK company. Leaf is by no means bitter, but be cautious as they make stronger blends that what most Americans are used to. This isn't meant to be watered down tea.LEAF QUALITY: 7/10FLAVOR: 7/10PRICE: 12/10

I am quite the tea connoisseur and in all honesty this brand is one of the smoothest and best tasting teas I have purchased in a long time. The flavor is subtle, not too strong & not too faint. The price was very fair for such a high quality loose tea. I highly recommend ALL their different teas as I have purchased many different kinds & I have the same opinion on them all. A++ Ahmad 😊✅PS: The tin container it came in is just beautiful and the tea is sealed in an elegant airtight gold foil pouch. I sound like I own or work for the company (which I do NOT) but I tend to be critical on tea, so when I found this particular brand and was so pleased I had to let people know my genuine opinion on it.

I was expecting something different.

I was searching for a strong breakfast black tea with a touch of bergamot, like a Lady Earl Grey or a Paris fruity style when I found this Ahmad brand PARADISE blend. After reading the reviews I decided to give it a try. When I received it, I liked that it came in a large tea tin for storage. It's prettier than in the photos. Looks nice on the kitchen counter. When I opened the airtight seal on the tea that first whiff made me smile. Fresh orange blossoms layered on TOP of crisp citrusy bergamot. Not overpowered by Bergamot--nicely balanced. BEAUTIFUL. Natural. Wonderfully floral and bright. Nothing artificial smelling. This is the best orange tea I've ever tried. (And I've tried tons!)BREWING-- oh boy! I am in love. Strong enough Black Tea to kick start my mornings, but PARADISE also makes a cheerful and happy iced tea. The whole family loved it. We are hooked. Highly recommend!!

I love this tea. I like black tea with bergamot. I also like that it’s loose leaf, not in tea bags. In my opinion, the flavor is richer that way.

This is the best tea I’ve ever had!The leaves are whole, expand in water and steep perfectly, no matter how long you steep or what strength you want your brew to be.I’d been looking for a loose tea that avoided being poorly aged, badly treated during production, and gave the scent and flavor of proper black tea. Found it!
