Best!

A great quality tea at a fair price.

This is a heavenly tea when it's brewed properly. It's my afternoon tea of choice.Was pleased that it arrived faster than I'd expected. The package was a bit battered-looking but the tea tastes fine. That's the only reason I'm not giving the seller five stars. They need to take a bit more care with their packing.

Nice rich dark tea,4 sugars,heat with tea bags on bottom gives it a dark look

Best tea ever! My cousin brought me over a box, and I just fell in love. Never again will I drink an American cup of tea. Such a full bold flavor. Buy it.Seller n shipping was perfect

Great product, the best Tea you can get

I actually drank this tea when I was in Ireland! I loved it then and brought some back home. I found that our grocery was selling it but they were small boxes. That is when I decided to check Amazon.

Quede encantada me gusto mucho la calidad el olor y el sabor. Llego super rapido y quede maravillada muy feliz con estos te

They served this in Ireland for tea time and it’s so strong it makes American tea look like water. You can put cream in this and it’s still dark!

Great price for imported tea from Ireland that you cannot find in all stores. Gave these as gifts to my aunts as a taste of Ireland. Good tasting tra.

Yes, this is the top quality Gold Label product even though it is in a green box. Fresh product with long expiration date of one full year in the future (some other suppliers ship product that is close to the expiration date, so that's the main reason for my 5 star review).

I love Lyons Gold Blend Tea, I have been drinking it for decades. The issue I have is my most recent purchase arrived in a plastic Amaxon bubble mailer, the package had been completely crushed. Inside, the box was open and crushed with the tea bags spilling out. As Lyons no longer uses cellophane wrapping outside the box this meant they were loose in the outer packaging. Amazon - do better, package this in a box to protect itnext time.

Just wish it had better airtight packaging. Last two orders boxes were crushed and open. Time before that I received a past the best use by date. Still the best tasting tea compared to US brands by far.

As an American who has recently switched addictions from coffee to tea I have been trying foreign tea cause let’s face it Lipton sucks unless we are talking iced tea! This isn’t my favorite of the ones I’ve tied but it is pretty good all the same. It kinda reminds me of twinning Irish breakfast tea if you have had that. Middle of the road in color from what I’ve been seeing from the other teas but surprisingly smooth with or without milk and sugar. Hope this helps!

I'm just after a year in Co. Mayo where I first started drinking this. Now, back in the states, it's not available locally. I tried the Twinings Irish Breakfast which is English idea of an Irish tea. But it seemed empty and hollow. That's all well and good if the only things you have to do today is write a check to your nanny who looks after your kids, or write letters to your tenants. But if you have actual work to do the Twinings just won't help. I have a scale at home which highly accurate. I used to use it to measure, well, never mind that, but it's very accurate. The weight of the tea in a Lyons tea bag is 3.00 grams. The weight of the tea in a Twinings Irish Breakfast tea bag is 2.00 grams. Another English brand of Irish tea is 2.5 grams. This may not be conclusive of any such thing, but as someone with quite a bit to do in a day I'm much happier with the Lyons. If I can get a bag of Barrys tea I'll give that a weigh and be back.

I used to work with a guy who was born and raised in Ireland, and he told me about this tea. The GOLD version is noticeably better tasting than the Standard one, and, imho, worth the extra charge. He was correct. LYONS Brand GOLD is truly the best tasting of the teas from Ireland, regardless of price. Not sure how they do it, but I'm happy to continue enjoying it, while I still can. BTW, I just ordered my 2ne LYONS Gold 80 Tea Bags, as I continue to enjoy the Aroma, Color, Taste, and the wonderful Relaxation I feel, when I enjoy a cup. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, imho. v/r "The TEA Spectator" :o)

I'm a big fan of Lyons Original Blend, a very fine black tea I enjoy regularly. I'm now a fan of Lyons Gold Blend.Lyons promotes their Gold Blend as being their "rich" blend. I'm not sure what that means, and I'll wager Lyons doesn't know what that means. I can report that Gold Blend is another very nice black tea, but to my taste it's "brighter" than Original Blend...whatever that means. Gold Blend does not have the distinctive malty quality I find in Original Blend, a quality that makes Original Blend my preference of the two offerings. (I think I know what "malty" means.) For the tea drinker who enjoys a malty tea, Original Blend will certainly deliver. For those who prefer their tea a bit more balanced or rounded (whatever that means), Gold Blend will meet their expectations. All that said, I will keep both in my rotation...which means I enjoy both for different reasons. You really can't go wrong with either of these very fine black teas. Kudos to Lyons. (Lyons has my permission to describe their Gold Blend as "Our Bright Blend"...again, whatever that means.)Rather than muddle over what rich, balanced, rounded, and brighter mean with regard to tea, do what I do: Have a cup of tea.

In Ireland there is a great Lyons Tea vs Barry's Tea debate but once you move across this side of the water you forget about all of that. It doesn't matter what type of tea it is as long as it's not from here.Curious, considering my favorite brand of tea was as the time Lipton black tea. I had to put his word to the test.I purchased both a box of Lyons Gold Blend and Barry's Tea Gold Blend and had them simultaneously delivered.My consensus after brewing a cup of both is I'm fine with either Barry's Tea or Lyons Tea as long as I don't have to drink another cup of Lipton ever.The pure richness of the tea is something I've never had before in a black tea. The aroma is strong and the flavor is bold. Even with milk and honey, the tea flavor is never lessened, only enhanced. It is absolutely wonderful and makes me question how Lipton can make tea so flavorless, needing two or even three bags to even come close to one Lyon's bag in terms of strength.As for Lyons vs Barry's, I'm not Irish enough to enter this debate. However, I can give my two cents after trying both.Barry's Tea is darker in color and has a slightly bitter taste. The bitterness persists with milk and honey. This isn't a negative by any means and only seems to enhance the "tea" flavor of the entire brew. It does seem to taste noticeably stronger than Lyons given the same steeping time and amount of milk/honey added.Lyons Tea is a bit softer in color and flavor, and does not have any indication of bitterness at all, yet still has an incredible bold flavor. It is simply better in my opinion only because I prefer a non-bitter tea to a slightly stronger bitter tea.
