Filiz Turkish Tea, Loose Leaf Black Tea, 500 g (17.6 oz)

Great tasting black tea. I like it a little stronger so I put in 5 rounded tablespoons for four cups. Perfect with a little honey. Recommend for your morning caffeine if you give up coffee like me.

perfect taste

Watching a long Turkish drama series (165 episodes!) I got to see a custom practiced very often in that series: whenever somebody visits somebody, whether acquaintances, friends or family, they're offered tea! Being a tea drinker myself, I was curious to know what kind of tea is served in Turkey. Luckily, Amazon has quite a few selections to choose from. I've decided to start with this Caykur brand of black tea, which is described as grown in the Black Sea region, without pesticides.I didn't realize the bag had quite a bit of tea in it! At the rate of 1 full teaspoon of tea for each cup of water, I'll be drinking this tea for a long time! Which is fine by me, because I've found the taste to be excellent, with a little sweetness to it, and a mild pleasant fragrance. It also has a nice clear reddish brown color, which looks really enticing when served in the traditional little clear glass cups (that will be my next purchase!). As a bonus, it is equally delicious as hot tea or cold iced tea.Some people may have a problem with the tea being ground, if they had expected tea leaves. This is not a problem for me because I have a really good strainer.I feel that this purchase was a great value for my money.

I grew up in South America, where drinking tea was a cherished family tradition. We would gather to enjoy freshly brewed tea, and its rich flavor and wonderful aroma are memories I have never forgotten.Since moving to the United States, I have struggled to find a tea that brings back those memories. After researching different brands on Amazon and reading many positive reviews, I decided to give this one a try, and I’m so glad I did.This tea exceeded my expectations. It has a rich yet smooth flavor and a wonderful aroma that reminds me of the tea I enjoyed growing up. It tastes authentic, is easy to prepare, and has quickly become one of my favorite teas.If you enjoy high-quality black tea with a rich flavor and a pleasant aroma, I highly recommend giving this tea a try.

Good product 👌

Very, very good tea. I like the flavor and aroma. It becomes from black to red. Yes, I like it, I like it. I recommend this CAYKUR FILIZ TEA. Enjoy it

Exactly what I buy in Turkey! My husband really likes this tea; it was fresh, and makes a very strong tea with good flavor.

Perfect

Delicioso

Lovely cay will be ordering again when I have drunk up

Esta buenísimo, pero me llego roto con un agujero

A very flavourful black tea largely grown and picked by women in Turkey enabling them to support themselves and their families. Although this tea is handled by large companies it allows the women tea growers to continue at this time. This sustains the livelihood of women while offering an environmentally beneficial tea of quality.
