Review: Its “good”, but not in the way real tea drinkers might think… - So, lets start with an honest disclosure: I have a complicated relationship with tea. I have read much about the health benefits of tea and wish to replace my sugar infused liquid bad habits with something healthier. Simple enough you might think, however, that’s where the complicated part comes into play; I absolutely despise the taste of tea. Preparing for this review, I invested some time into ensuring that I accurately convey the level of disgust I experience on my taste buds while consuming tea. Turns out “Hate”, which is a very powerful word to express an “intense or passionate dislike for something or someone” and was my go-to descriptor, is not at all accurate. In the hierarchy of English words used to convey dislike and negativity, it appears that hate takes a back seat to “Loathe” which itself sits behind “Abhor”. To give you some perspective of my level of abhorrence for the taste: Were I present at Boston Harbor on December 16th of 1773, I would have joined the Sons of Liberty in throwing crates of tea into the harbor, not just for the sake of raising hell about taxation without representation, but just as importantly to me, ridding the world of the foul taste of that repugnant vile weed. In my search to find a brand of tea that is somewhat palatable to my anti-tea taste buds, I have tried many different brands & types. I have attempted to camouflage the taste with honey, lemon, maple syrup, and even sugar, but with no success. Nothing I do can filter my repugnance. Here’s where any sane person would have had the realization that “Gee, maybe tea isn’t for me, I just don’t like it, so I shouldn’t drink it!” But apparently, I’m to stupid and stubborn, and my battle persists in trying to find a tea that I can consume without fighting back the gag. So, with that depressing look at the inner workings of my mind, and my lifelong battle with tea, lets move on to why I find myself here, giving this elixir a 5-star review: I stumbled into Waka’s Instant Kenyan Black Tea during my last bout of “Must find a Tea” madness, and read the reviews in which most tea drinkers referred to its unique capabilities to infuse into water without any grainy remnants and also its rich flavor. Reviews were very positive and something told me to order it. Upon its arrival, I opened the package and took a deep nasally draw and…nothing bad. I mixed up a small glass and took a sip, bracing myself for the inevitable ugly tea aftertaste letdown; but it never appeared. Instead, I was greeted with a slight but noticeable dark mustiness that was relatively pleasant with no repugnance! Zero Repugnance! I proceeded to sip away and in no time the glass was empty. At the ripe age of 49, I had just consumed my very first full cup of tea! Summary: While I cant say it’s the best drink I’ve ever had, it’s the only tea I have ever been able to finish, and from my perspective, that says everything. I’ll be ordering more! -If you’re a tea connoisseur, you would be wise to read the other reviews since what I’m peddling here isn’t going to help you much. -If you have a tea-hate personality disorder and are trying to find a tea that you won’t hate as much or at all, then take my word for it and give this a try. I can drink it straight but prefer a squeezed lemon with it, which compliments the tea well. -The caffeine level is a strong plus! Gives me a nice kick without the jitteriness of energy drinks.
Review: A Favorite! - This is the 2nd time that I have ordered this product and I and I am just as impressed as the 1st. This tea has a rich black tea flavor which I love. It's perfect for the use I put it to. We go on a lot of mission trips and while we are out of the country it is important to me to still have my daily cup of tea. Ironically I bought this Kenyan tea and brought it to Kenya with me! It is super easy to use and a great bargin for the money. Honestly it's really surprising when you get such an exceptional product for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend this to anybody who likes good flavored black tea which is quick and easy to prepare on the fly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this finely ground tea leaves or freeze dried tea?**
A: It is very finely ground tea leaves and wonderfully tasty and easy to use. I am tired of dealing with tea bags.

**Q: How long will this stay fresh? Does it have an expiration date?**
A: I didn't look for the expiration date. However, keeping it inside a glass jar should help it stay fresh till I run out. Though the bag claims to make up to 200 servings, I think 80 servings is the max. I am making 2 cups a day. At this rate, it will be finished in 40 days.

**Q: How does this compare in taste to Teavana or Pure Leaf bottled tea?**
A: A lot depends on the strength that you want. I myself have found if I dissolve tea in a little hot water first it taste more like brewed tea. Remember a little goes a long way.

**Q: What kind of black tea is in the "indian black" variation? assam? other/s?**
A: Hello! It’s Camellia Sinensis from South India. We hope it helps!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes a great iced tea!
*by M***N on June 13, 2019*

After trying Waka's coffee products, I ordered the instant tea as well. Must admit, I have never heard of instant tea before... Well, it's delicious! I use this instant tea to mix in a bottle of cold water to make my own iced tea for-the-go. It's faster to make since there's no need to steep the tea and it easily dissolves in the water. Because you use only a tiny bit of it every time it can also last you for a long time. Very quality and easy to use product.
