Great place to find tea
February 1, 2024
Updated review

My husband only drinks decaf tea and it is hard to find in our area, except for herbal teas. English Tea Store has a great selection every time I shop.

Not very customer friendly
February 1, 2024

My order couldn't be dispatched as the zip code was automatically changed when I entered the shipping address. My bad that I didn't check again but who would expect this to happen? I addressed customer service and they simply said they had delivered to the address given and that I had to contact the shipper. No way to get anyone on the phone/chat at UPS, only very useless AI. So I have spent $ 56 for nothing but hazzle. Very disappointing, first and last order.

The website was easy to navigate. The ordering process was easy to follow. The product was delivered in a timely fashion. Sorry to give only 3 stars, but I was disappointed in the flavor of the tea.

Tea at the Castle~
January 31, 2024
Updated review

This Cream Earl Grey is amazing. After having similar tea at a castle in Co Springs I decided I had to get some for more frequent enjoyment. The castle gift shop was sold out so I hunted online and found the English Tea Store. I tried a sample and was thrilled that I had found a tea seemingly identical to the Cream Earl Grey I enjoyed at the castle. It is delicious and soothing and the fragrance is wonderful! Thank you so much!

Not The Same Product
January 30, 2024

I ordered Make Mine A Builder's Tea from this site previously.
Last time, everything was fine.
This time, I brewed a cup, and it was not the same flavor as every other time I have had this same
Flavor as every other time I have had this tea.

Aside from no wrapping on the outside of the box, I noticed the box had other changes to the labeling.
This is not the same product I have been buying.

You should warn people about this when they reorder, that the product may be different in some way, even of lesser quality.

I had no way of knowing this before I ordered.

I had a similar problem when I ordered Scottish Blend Tea. The amount of tea in the bags was less, and I wasted my money on weak, flavorless tea.

This new iteration of Make Mine A Builder's does not taste the same as the old, and it doesn't even taste good.
