Ah-yum. This brought joy to my life this summer working out in Massachusetts. Some proper tea in the morning was much appreciated…good basic EB with a toastiness that is really brought out by a splash of soymilk. (P.S. It’s good to be back to Steepster; it’s been far too long.)

This was my free gift when I ordered using a twitter code.
This tea would likely do well with a bit of sugar and splash of cream.
It’s a smooth quality black tea in a convenient bag, nothing WOW but certainly better than most bagged blacks I have encountered.
