Has anyone else had problems with this tea getting super cloudy? It's pretty much undrinkable. I can't figure out how to contact Davidson's.

I haven't had it get cloudy. Are you adding in a sweetener that could be doing it?

I have ordered it repeatedly and never had that problem. It's our favorite. Maybe you received a bad batch?

I have not had any problems with mine but I use a filtered water! Suggest you try that first!

I have not had any problems with cloudiness. I make a pot of it a day using my hot water dispenser, which isn't filtered water. But we have pretty good water where I live. I'm on my 2nd bag of Davidson's and haven't had any issues.

My first brew was cloudy, but after that I don't recall having any cloudy issues. It IS a dark tea; kind of like a thick microbrew beer as opposed to a Bud Lite, this tea is dark as opposed to a pre-wrapped commercial tea bag.

I have not had any problems with the tea. I looked into it and it would be minerals in the water. We use a filter under the sink for all water which we drink. Of course my water may be different your water. Maybe you could buy a gallon of distilled water to see if that fixes the tea problem. If so you might wish to try a reverse osmosis filter. My filter is a cheaper type.

What's the date on the product? I don't think it's supposed to be cloudy. I would contact the seller for an exchange.

Thanks for your comments I've had similar problems like with your mother, I'm sending back 4 bags that leak really bad hopefully this was just a bad batch I really want to like the product and when the bags do seal properly it an incredible little system I actually bought it to compliment my more expensive Food Saver Say could you post again and let me know how your mothers new bags work out. Thanks!

just got mine out of the box and i'm having the same problem. the filter holder is hot, the steamer seems to be working, but water isn't going through. i thought i tamped the grounds too much, so i have now tried with a loose tamp and with no coffee grounds at all. All I get is a horrible noise. I'm very frustrated!

I also had the same problem. You could try but you may not get the full effect. I started placing my tea bag in the cup and allowing the hot water brew it that way. I let it steep for one more minute or your desired look and strength..good luck

I get mine from teavana. They have a store not far from my home but they also have a good internet site. I actually just ordered from there to see how it goes. Shipping is cheaper than gas.

As with most kukicha teas, there will be leaves in the mix. But the majority of the tea will be roasted twigs. Davidson's is by far the best brand I've tasted. And very strong, so you'll get several batches from one scoop. And you can't beat the price!

Hi. I wouldn't say this is "normal" but I just received a bottle from them, and I've experienced the same thing. The oil is pressed from seeds, so I guess it just wasn't filtered properly. I'm going to run it through a coffee filter. That should take care of the problem.

I had the same model in the past - lasted 2 years without issues. I order a new one and I also now have the same problem. Terrible taste chemical in nature. I will the vinegar and baking soda and sent it back if it does not take care of the problem - entirely unusable at this point. Hopefully it is not health threatening!

Tried loose tea leaves once. Used cold water and let it sit overnight. The tea was very weak and there was a lot of sediment in the pitcher. I will not try again.

Dear Sir, Have you found a solution to the order/taste problem with your electric kettle? I need one and had decided on this model but now I'm not so confident.Thank you for any feedback you could give me.Roben

I am so disappointed in the new recipe. I loved the previous one. It is now strong with a horrible bitter aftertaste. I tried watering it down but nothing takes away the bitter aftertaste. Why would the company choose to ruin a good thing as I am sure many customers will not buy again. I bought two boxes and plan to return the unopened one to the store.

Hi, I had no problem..its still workung great..but I always close very good every little bottle..perhaps you didnt close it or perhaps it was to expired? sometimes it happens with beauty products however as I said it is still working for me..

I am not sure. If you enlarge the label you will see all the informational about the tea that was available. If you are concerned about where the tea in grown, go to the label and ask the folks at Davidson's. I will tell you that I have purchased other products from this vendor and I consider them trustworthy. By the way this product makes excellent iced tea.

I think that is the commercial version (same tea) When Smukers took over Paradise Tea the immediately discontinued the retail version!They also own that rotten Lipton tea!I called Smukers and they give you a song and a dance (it's obvious that the receptionist have never even tasted Paradise tea. Thank you corporate America for giving us garbage and making sure that garbage is our only choice!

I also have had this experience. I have been buying this for years from Amazon and a local organic grocer. I agree that both the smell and taste is awful and I am considering changing brands. Even returned one because I thought something was wrong with it, but the replacement is the same. I would love to know what has been altered. I have a fairly high tolerance, but this is really bad.
