I bought the tea because I love this estate and their green tea. Received this tea with a packaging date of one year ago. This means this tea is definitively not fresh. And it tasted and looked not fresh either. No green leaves after steeping. I would not buy this tea again from this source.

These are very fresh, high quality tea bags. The taste is closer to a green darjeeling. There is a nice hint of muscatel fruitiness and grape skin.I steep 1 tea bag in 8 ounces water for 3 minutes at 185f. This produces a strong, fragrant and fruity cup of tea without being bitter or astringent. I follow similarly steeping times for my subsequent infusions (increasing both the time and temperature), and can get around 3 total steeps in each tea bag.The quality of the tea leaves could be a bit better. It is not whole leaf, but rather chopped up quite a bit. This allows it to infusion better, but is not an ideal indication of quality.The teabags do not appear to be biodegradable or plastic free. They are likely made from nylon which is plastic and far from ideal.I do like that this tea is tested for the antioxidants/polyphenol content. That being said, the "15.75 mg/g polyphenols" they claim does not appear to be exceptionally high. For comparison, Japanese sencha tea boasts 66.75 mg/g polyphenols.Overall - delicious and fruity green tea, which a nice muscatel / green grape skin flavor. These are clearly made with very high quality tea, although I wish they used plastic-free teabags.

This tea is very mild in taste very good for all the tea loves. It is very light and refreshing taste. Very oraganic and good for health also. It's aroma taste very good I will say it's a superb black tea. The best part is its tea bags which are very handy and very easy to prepare. It's is very relaxing and refreshing too.

Bought Makaibari Tea Treasures Springtime Bloom 100 Gm Loose Leaf First Flush Black Tea at ₹620 and found a bit too costly for the quality of that tea. It is a mixture of little black leaves with a lot of brownish and greenish leaves with a odour of crushed bamboo leaves. After getting peculiar smell I was not sure about the taste, so used less than recommended amount. Anyway after preparation took a sip of the decoction (after soaking for 4 minutes) of 3 tsp in 450ml water around 95°C was quite bitter. So the quality of this perticular varity is worst and the hard earn money was a complete waste. I am not going to buy this any more. I think it's not at all a Makaibari product.

Expectations from Makaibari is too high in our mind. The springtime bloom First flush Tea by Makaibari Tea Treasure, delivered in an elegant package, tastes nice, but little short on the aroma. Hope, the future packs match our expectation. Overall good.
