iLOLA Loose Leaf Tea Discs Royal Cream of Earl Grey No. 12 | Oprah’s Favorite Things 2022 | Rich Black Tea w/Bergamot & Vanilla | High Caffeine | No Tea Bag Needed | 14 Individual Discs

I really enjoyed this tea from Ilola. I got the cocoa chai. It has cacao shells, cinaommon, cardomon, etc. It is supposed to come in discs for portion and convenience, but half the discs broke apart. This didn't bother me as I made most of it into iced tea. I had a hot cup for the review. This tea out of the box smelled amazing. I also love the packaging. I had a little unsweetened and a little with a touch of agave, that I also added to the iced tea. The aroma is wonderful. You do not get a lot of tea for your money, but this is a luxury tea in my opinion. Like a pricey bag of coffee, this is unique, and made from fine ingredients. Considering that, I only found it to be modestly over priced, and a nice treat or at least the flavor I tried. My iced tea takes a couple of days to make, so I will update then as to how it came out. But I expect it to taste like it did hot. I use a hot cold brew technique for my iced tea. If you can afford it, like to try new things, and can get passed the discs breaking apart ,I can highly recommend this tea.

Of all the earl grey teas I've tried, this has the creamiest finish. Also, the bergamot is not overpowering like in a lot of other blends. The tea disc is a nice idea, but they tend to break up in the shipping. You can just measure out the amount like you would with any other loose leaf tea, and it works just fine. The leaves themselves are of excellent quality and deliver a good, full-flavor brew.

This cocoa chai tea is delicious! It has cacao shells, cinnamon, cardamon, etc., it adds a smooth chocolate and soft Indian spices to a unique blend of Assam and Rooibos teas. It's a perfect indulgence any time of day. This black tea has a medium caffeine level, and it won't give you the jitters. When I opened the box, it smelled amazing. I made this tea hot. The aroma is still amazing and to sip it is wonderful!It is a nice treat, and I really enjoyed it!

Don't

There is no disks, they all fell apart. There is no bergamot scent. Ordered small box to try, was hoping that I found really good product, as pictures was great. Disappointed.

This blend of black tea works really well both hot and iced, though I needed a lot more for iced to get it to the strength I wanted. One disc is plenty for a mug of hot tea. It's a good, solid black tea flavor, though there was a faint undercurrent of something that seemed floral or fruity. Definitely not a bad undercurrent, just not something I typically expect with "plain" black tea! Very delicious nonetheless, and I'm enjoying every cup.

This tea is excellent! It would be a nice gift for any tea lover and is packaged in a beautiful box. The tea has an amazingly complex taste and is one you will savor. This is the best English breakfast tea I have ever had the pleasure to drink. 5 STARS-Love it!

This product is a prime example of style over usability. It overcomplicates what should be a simple operation just to give the impression of a premium product.To be fair, the tea is actually quite nice with berry and chocolate hints blended with a good quality black tea. And if it was simply packaged in a bag or canister for use with any tea infusor, then this would rate 5 stars.But no, the vendor decided to create pre-made discs for use in overpriced pots and wrapped it all in premium packaging that does nothing to enhance the taste of the tea. As a gift for someone who is impressed by the packaging, then this might be a decent idea. But once they go to use the tea, the illusion quickly falls apart.In my case, the tea arrived in an attractive cardboard sleeve with a well-sealed inner bag that held the cardboard tray of what should have been tea disks. Once I dug through all the packaging, I found a tray filled with clumps and bits and pieces of fragrant tea. Not a single disk was intact and as the crumbled pieces fell to the counter I wondered why anyone would pay so much for this much hassle.I was able to scrape enough crumbs together to fill my infusor and a few minutes later enjoyed a quite pleasant cup of tea. But afterward, as I stuffed the crumbled tea pieces into a zipper bag, I again wondered why all this wasted presentation was necessary. The vendor could have just bagged or boxed loose tea and had a wonderful product to sell most likely at a cheaper price.Sadly, the vendor chose to sell a product that looked high-end but performed miserably. As much as I enjoyed the tea, I would not order this again.
