LCurator note · Twinings
A turmeric cup that takes the sweet aniseed road rather than the fiery one: at 45 percent the earthy root really dominates, orange peel lifts it, and star anise with liquorice steers the sweetness toward aniseed instead of ginger heat. That makes it a real fork from the Pukka turmeric, milder, rounder, no kick, but the aniseed direction is itself love-or-hate, so know which camp you are in. The functional-digestive billing is marketing; what you actually get is a warming, earthy, faintly liquorice cup, pleasant if that profile appeals and a slog if turmeric is not your thing.

About this tea

Twinings Turmeric, in brief.

Twinings Turmeric is a caffeine-free herbal infusion with turmeric root leading the cup, supported by ginger, lemon flavouring and a touch of black pepper, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the spice-led alternative to a plain ginger or a plain herbal tea. In the cup it is warming and earthy with a soft golden colour, a gentle peppery edge and a citrus lift on the finish.

The turmeric root does the structural work, giving the liquor its distinctive deep-gold colour and the warm, slightly earthy backbone that defines the cup, while the ginger adds a familiar warmth without dominating. The lemon flavouring brightens the finish so the spice never tastes harsh, and the small touch of black pepper, the unusual ingredient, helps the turmeric carry through the cup instead of settling as a muddy aftertaste. The pyramid format gives the roots room to open during the brew, which is part of why this cup tastes fuller than supermarket equivalents.

Caffeine status: no caffeine, so any hour suits the Turmeric, late evening too. Taste profile: warming earthy turmeric up front balanced by a soft ginger heat and a bright lemon finish. What it is: a Twinings all-natural turmeric-led herbal infusion, in the same family as the Pukka Turmeric Active and Yogi Turmeric.

Curator notes: our Turmeric notes come from reading the current box and Twinings' specification, then brewing it at the pack's time and heat. Further down, the Q and A tab has storage, freshness and brewing temperatures for the Turmeric.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Twinings Turmeric is a flavourful turmeric cup for anyone who would rather drink their spice than swallow a supplement. Unlike basic spice teas, it builds its flavour on turmeric with star anise and orange. Twinings puts that warm, approachable turmeric into a simple bag for home. For a comforting, rather British pause, brew this orange and star anise tea pairs nicely with a post meal reset or as a warming midday pause. At home or in a busy day, the Turmeric gives a zesty, warming cup made to the Twinings standard.

Side by side

How does it compare

vs Pukka Turmeric GoldWhile Pukka leans heavily into lemon and cardamom Twinings Turmeric prioritises juicy orange and star anise. It is the superior choice for those who prefer a sweet fruity profile over a sharp citrus taste.
vs Clipper Turmeric and GingerClipper offers a more fiery ginger kick whereas Twinings provides a smoother more balanced experience that masks the earthy turmeric more effectively.
vs Pure Turmeric PowderStandard powder can be difficult to dissolve and bitter. Twinings puts a carefully measured forty five percent of turmeric into a handy bag that tastes like a treat.
