Tastes just like the real thing
This is my go to tea when pregnant. I was a little skeptical at first about how this was going to taste however was pleasantly surprised that it tasted just like regular tea. My only complaint is the cost, it is much more expensive than regular tea.
Good enough for a decaf
For an inexpensive tea, I love Red Rose. Orange Pekoe is the primo gentle black tea. Mellow and rich without bitterness. Prefer the non-decaf version, but tried this one when my mom came to visit me. Not a huge fan, but it's not bad at all.
Our house is full of tea drinkers. Red Rose is the only tea in our house, including the decaffeinated version. Sometimes you want a cup of tea without the caffeine. This one has a great taste.
I like this tea but it is not my favourite.. It has a light taste compared to something like tetley brand or typhoo so it is nice in the evening... not a wake-me-up tea but definitely nice once in a while. I do purchase these regularly and have it with a light meal ... I prefer decaf teas as I like to have them before bed with something sweet so this one works perfectly for evenings :)
I'm not sure why but I always thought that I wouldn't like Decaffeinated tea. I've always used Red Rose tea and for the first time a couple weeks ago, I tried the decaf and I have to admit that I really love the taste.
I love that this is decaffeinated as I try to avoid caffeine altogether. So it's nice having this as another flavour to try. As I prefer sweet herbal teas this was a bit of a departure for me, it's definitely a strong "tea" flavour more on the bitter side than sweet. But it's great to have in the house to offer other traditional tea drinking friends (some don't like my herbals), I just say it's Orange Pekoe. It's going to take some time for me to get more accustomed to the stronger flavour, but I like having it as an alternative to other teas like green and black b/c they both have caffeine.
I started drinking red rose orange pekoe tea with my grandma as a child. Now that my grandma is in her eighties, I only buy these decaffeinated tea bags. Tastes the same but helps her sleep better at night!
Red Rose is the only brand of orange pekoe tea that my family will drink. My mom likes hers with cream, my husband with milk and I like mine black. This Orange Pekoe is a black tea with a very rich potent taste. It does not take long to brew and of course the longer you steep it the stronger the taste. Some teas taste watered down or over processed compromising the taste and the benefits of the tea, but this brand of tea tastes natural.
I grew up with Red Rose so it brings with it the comfort of memories of years long passed - love that it is now decaf so I can enjoy a cup in the evening without worrying about being up all night.
This is proper decaffeinated tea that has become a household staple. There's nothing groundbreaking about it, but it tastes good (especially with a splash of milk), is easy to prepare, and is affordable.
