drank Four Red Fruits by Kusmi Tea

I brewed up a large mug of this as soon as I got home. Either I wasn’t in the mood for black tea, or I possibly over steeped this, as it just wasn’t my thing. It was very bitter without any additives and just didn’t taste great with cream and sugar added. Will hope for better results with less steep time.

Thanks Ricky for the chance to try this tea. I got the package today.

Don’t know how long you steeped it for, but I find that Kusmi’s suggested 3-4 mins is too long. I’ve been happy with the way their black teas have tasted at 2 mins, so maybe try that. :)

Live in the cornfields of IL, but not too far from the city. Expecting a baby any day now (due Oct 24 2011). Sticking to mainly herbal and low caffeine teas for now. Trying to encourage my husbands tea drinking, but he adds so much sweetner he may as well just drink diet pop. I love trying new teas, and will try any tea once.
