Twinings tea is one of the most popular (and oldest) names in the tea world. Twinings is a company that has existed for hundreds of years, ever since the introduction of tea to the European population, and has evolved together with the tea industry to become a true household name. Of course, with such a legacy at hand, Twinings tea could not possibly allow itself to disappoint its devoted consumers, and has maintained a high standard of quality throughout time.
The name of Twinings is heavy with tradition, being associated with the first teahouse to ever be opened in London and with many other events related with the pioneering of the tea trade in the western world. From the beginnings of the house, in 1706 and until today, Twinings has managed to keep its good name amongst businesses and customers alike. Some of the greatest supporters of Twinings teas were represented by great political and social figures of the past few centuries, including George Washington and Queen Victoria.
There is a great variety of Twinings teas to suit every taste, all having the common denominator of quality. From green teas to back teas and a series of special household blends, countless gems can be found amongst the many options Twinings offers. Some of the particularly popular Twinings teas are the flavored green teas. While pure green tea is also available, these flavored green teas blend the properties of green tea with some of the most appealing flavors to create delicious and refreshing beverages. Imagine the unique taste of green tea mixed with citrus, berries, pomegranate, jasmine or even bergamot, to create a green Earl Grey.
The Twinings infusions have no artificial flavors and are made out of pieces of dried fruit and herbs. From berries and citric fruit to Echinacea combinations, the Twinings infusions are sure to give you a healthy, tasty boost of energy whatever time of day you would choose to serve them.
White tea is the most delicate and precious tea in existence, in part because of the complicated drying process and in part because of the limited harvesting possibilities this tea has. Good quality white tea is one of the most pleasant and unmistakable tasting experiences, and as such, should be enjoyed fully by anyone. Twinings white tea gives you a chance to experience the gustative wonders of the tea plant buds, carefully harvested and dried, either in their pure form or flavored with the delicious savor of pomegranate.
Of course, aside from the green and white teas and the natural infusions, Twinings teas are mostly represented by black teas in various combinations, from the classic English breakfast blend to other, more innovative and exotic combinations of flavors such as orange, pineapple, coconut and rose. Overall, trying out Twinings teas is an experience you shouldn't pass up, if only for the fact that sampling such a tea would bring you in direct contact with a small piece of tea history in all its glory.
