This has a lovely darjeeling base with some other green and black teas thrown in. I purchased this because I thought it would be a nice addition to the TTB for folks who want to try some Canadian teas.
Light bergamot with floral citrus notes and a hint of perfumy floral but more honeysuckle than distinctly jasmine unless you look for it. There is a nice balance of tannins and it is not overly bitter but has enough flavour. It is not your typical heavy hitter all tannin CT black tea. This has a more well rounded profile with multiple notes adding to its complexity.
It’s like how 50/50 iced tea and lemonade creates its own better-than-the-ingredients drink. This is a nice darjeeling mixed with Lady Grey and its a great union of flavour but distinct in its own right.
Flavors: Bergamot, Citrus, Floral, Honeysuckle, Tannin

I really enjoy their green-black blends! I think in the end, the No. 10 won out over this one for me, but I still need to try Government Street Blend in loose leaf…
I bought teabag versions of this. I find their teabags are the same as looseleaf except looseleaf obviously you can add more tea than suggested if you make a large pot.

The ones I tried were very different, with the teabag having much more finely chopped tea.
