As Close To Perfection as You Can Get
I am a tea lover. I have traveled to China and had tea in various tea houses, including the big government run establishment in Beijing. I even ordered tea directly from China for many years – different types and flavors. I’ve been to and had tea from different parts of the world – Kenya and Sri Lanka included. My go to brand is Dilmah tea bags – they are perhaps the best for travel since the tea bags contain real loose-leaf tea and the flavor is superb. Not inexpensive though, they are shipped directly from Sri Lanka and that is the only problem if you run out of supply as I did recently.Which led me to this. In my desperate search for a suitable alternative to my favorite Dilmah, I tried many different ones I have at home – but nothing really was good enough. Then I thought I would make another attempt here on Amazon. My previous experience with tea, especially Darjeeling ordered here has not been good.I recall the best tea I have ever had was in person at the Makaibari Estate in Darjeeling and it was the First Flush they grow there. Since then I have tried to get it many times, but it has never been the same. Reading the reveiws here of different brands I was not very hopeful until I came across Vahdam.The key with all teas, especially First Flush is freshness. It cannot survive handling at various intermediaries. True to the promise, it came in a vacuum-sealed pack with a very convenient sealable bag with a peel-off label to use with it.The leaves do look fresh and are somewhat soft. The color of the brew is the typical bright and golden that you expect. The aroma is heavenly. For aficionados, First Flush when made from fresh leaves fills the room with its beautiful bouquet. The Vahdam product is not quite there, and that is again to be expected, no matter the source, once it is packed and stored, the tea does lose some of its aromatic qualities. It therefore has to be consumed as quickly as possible. My sample was probably harvested in March of 2023 and I am having it nine months later, so it is not going to be the same as fresh tea.The taste has that delicate, fruity, sweet quality with a long finish. I found notes of tulsi even, but that is part of its complex nature. This is not a tea to be had in a hurry. When brewed properly and served in delicate china, it is truly one of the gastronomic wonders of the world.All I can say is that this product is as close to perfection as you can get from something ordered online and received in two days. Harvested eight thousand miles away, the fact that I can savor its delightful flavor sitting here in New York is a marvel in itself.The packaging is very nice, with a note from the owner of the estate. He does mention the idea of giving back to the farmers and workers who produce these wonderful things and I do hope he lives up to his promise because the worker at a tea estate is the lowest participant in this chain and it is really a tedious and back-breaking job that she performs, in order to bring us a little bit of paradise.Now go and order some of this heavenly nectar.

Good but pricey
If you like a very mild black tea this may be one for you. To me, this one is very similar to a green tea. Very nice tea, quite mellow. But it is on the costly side for what you get. Comes in a sealed pouch. I transferred it to a canister to make access easier. I think you can find similar teas at a better price point.Edit: Now that I’ve had a bit more time with this tea I have to say it is quite good. The taste of the tea is quite good. In appearance it is light for a “black” tea. It the cup it is slightly darker that the green teas I have tried. Yes, a bit more than some others but you get what you pay for.

Six minute steep makes for great antidepressant and more:)
Great tea. I steep 6 minutes to get max benefit. I noticed a profound deficit in my mood in general yesterday when I switch my routine. When I remembered that I hadn’t drank this tea, I fixed a cup. Then actually felt like taking the dogs to the park and running errands. Unbelievable!

heads up- read sizes CAREFULLY! this is a smaller product than most of their other advertised teas
While I like the quality of this tea, their amazon listings are confusing and can be deceptive if you don’t read carefully. They picture the same bag in every listing, only changing the label of what kind of tea it is/ picture of the leaves. However, the sizes vary drastically.I ordered a bag of black tea awhile ago, and when browsing for a bag of loose leaf green tea I found this listing. Because the items were equivalent in price and featured the same exact looking bag, I assumed I was going to get the same sized product just with a different variety of tea. When this product arrived, I realized that it was actually only a small box of vacuum sealed 3.5 oz tea, and they provide you with a bag to transfer it over. MUCH smaller than the 9 ounce large bag of tea that I had received previously, even though the pictures and the descriptions were nearly identical. MAKE SURE YOU read exactly how many ounces you ordering (which is listed at the very end of the description in most cases), don’t just assume it will be a big bag. It feels a little deceptive and I wish they would make the actual quantity more obvious in their listings.Finally, I will say the quality of the tea is really pretty good for the price. I’ve enjoyed the taste so far and it seems pretty fresh. This particular box comes with instructions on brewing and a nice story about the origins of the company. Just be careful to really determine what it is you are ordering otherwise you will be disappointed like I was.

New taste for me!
I had heard good things about this tea so I decided to buy it. I bought this brand because the reviews spoke highly of the quality. Since I had never tasted Darjeeling tea before, I really did not know what to expect. To be on the safe side I added a spoonful of honey. I will say this is a very aromatic and flavorful tea. I really enjoyed it. Today, I will try it without honey. My âgo-toâ teas are usually green, herbal or fruity, but I did enjoy my cup of Darjeeling tea today. The tea came in a vacuum sealed pouch too. To me, it was worth the cost. Actually, I didnât think the price was that bad anyway. Iâm sure most of us spend more than what this tea cost on less healthy choices that we consume. My only regret is that I drank my tea after dinner. Not too smart. I could not fall asleep for hours afterwards ð¥¹

This is the chai I have been longing for! I love the flavour of masala chai but havenât been able to find a good blend for years, most were too cinnamon forward. But this is the perfect mix of spices that highlight all the warm spices without any one overtaking the flavour. I also really appreciate the Vadham brand and story. Will definitely order again.
