Friday's Afternoon

Perfect any time of day

I had been enjoying an afternoon blend from another company, but Friday's blew theirs out of the water. As soon as I opened the bag and took a sniff, I knew it was going to be good. I tend to brew a cup that's just shy of half a liter (500 ml, about 16 oz.), so most loose leaf teas take a lot of fine tuning--and extra tea--to get the strong flavor I prefer. For the first steep, I used my usual two teaspoons of tea and it was almost too strong. This tea packs a punch! Smooth and flavorful without a hint of bitterness, and it stands up very well to repeat steeps. This tea is everything I love in a black tea, and it's going in my regular rotation.

longtime drinker returns for more tea

I've been getting tea from Friday's since she kickstarted it. She makes some really good and interesting blends, and I'm a particular fan of the flagship afternoon tea.

So good

I adore this black tea! I can't wait to smell it when I open the package. All other teas have been ruined for me now.
