The Columbian Emerald Black tea is superb. It is not only delicious but it apparently has a low acidity which makes it great for drinking with non-dairy milks.

Satisfying
A good, satisfying tea. Somewhat lacking the deep aroma and fruitiness of the best Ruby 18 black/oolongs, but definitely worth the price.
