Not my cup of tea

It's nice, but not my cup of tea (I know, bad pun). It is a bit more tannic than I expected for an "afternoon" tea and, unfortunately, I am a "tea wimp" who likes milder blends with the Chinese teas like Queen Catherine or Palm Court. However, it is always fun to try something new and different.

Best everyday tea

​This tea is so delicious that if I didn’t limit my caffeine intake, I would drink it all day. I look forward to my first cup every morning. I inhale its aroma before my first sip and say “Ahhh.”

My wife & I recently took a trip to London, and had afternoon tea at Harrods’ Georgian restaurant, where they had this tea listed, but happened to be out while we were there. I was so wanting to try it that I ordered it from H&S. This is an incredible tea with phenomenal flavor…well worth the price. It’s rich, textured, and delicious - I can’t recommend it enough.
