Tea For A Tea Drinker
I'm one of those people that drinks a lot of tea. Expensive and inexpensive.
This is a less expensive every day tea. It's not fancy, but it is above average.
Strong flavored that will stand up to milk and sugar if you like. Think Irish
breakfast commercial blends and you have an idea of the typical flavor.
If you're a tea drinker, think a Anhui Province medium grade Chuen Cha.
Overall a great bang for your buck if you are a tea drinker who isn't afraid
of loose leaf preparations. The packaging concerns are pretty groundless. If you're
drinking loose leaf tea, odds are you have a few jars or air tight tea containers.
The packaging itself is good, eco-friendly, seals well but you might want to put half
(or more) into a air tight container then use the stuff left in the bag first.
This way you will avoid any flavor degradation when at the bottom of the bag
from oxidation over time, if you don't use this tea daily or regular like.
It is not a first flush premier estate tea. It is splendid tasting and a great value.
Eco-friendly and organic are just valuable perks to the world conscious.
