This is a gorgeous tea. It's an elevated Earl Grey. It has those creamy notes to it that pair beautifully with a splash of milk. The quality of this tea is one of the best I have ever tried. It's aromatic, intensely flavourful and is not bitter, even after a long steep.
I think this is the best truly blueberry flavored black tea Ive found. An excellent novelty to add flavor to the day and it doesn't curdle milk so you can juj it up!
We have begun a "tea of the month" at our tea room, and this flavor is fast becoming a customer favorite!
I love the variety of the teas
Full bodied stands up to ice , I use it for iced tea daily.




Has a wonderful earthy/grassy undercurrent, yet robust enough to satisfy a lover of black teas. It's also the only tea my wife, a coffee hound, will touch. All in all, a satisfying, yet relaxing tea.
