Has anybody ever tried "Tea India" tea? It is an American brand - apparently it was developed to meet the needs of Indian immigrants who were dissatisfied with the quality of tea in America (who can blame them and why didn't the Irish think of this first?).
Tea India is sold in Indian grocery stores. I saw it when I went to stock up on Taj Mahal. I may give it a try when the Taj Mahal runs out. I was just wondering if anyone here could tell me how it compare to Taj Mahal.
Thanks.
Sure, they have a perfectly good kalami tea. I don't like it quite as much as the Sharzad brand, but it's fine.
As far as I know, the Taj Mahal is only BOP, not whole leaf. Although Tea India may make a "barooti" BOP as well as the kalami.

I have seen it but never tried it. I asked a friend who was on business to China to bring me back some tea (I really should have been more specific) and he brings me back this box of Mlesna brand, Dimbula BOP loose tea. It's from Sri Lanka of all places, not quite the authentic chinese tea I had been expecting, but very good and much like Taj Mahal and such but a bit higher quality. Worth a look for, I think you can buy it online.
