Darjeeling Tea Summer Harvest FTGFOP1. (3 Oz). Single Estate. Darjeeling Second Flush. High Altitude Tea Garden.

Great flavor, my new favorite.

My new favorite black tea. Malty sweet and earth, while being very smooth and low tannin.

Excellent product

Update: The shop owner reached out to me personally and kindly offered me a refund. I appreciate this and have upgraded my rating due to the pleasant transaction. That said, this tea was not a match for me.Rose teas are usually delicate in taste, especially when the base is black tea--however--this tea was seriously lacking in flavor and taste. As far as I'm concerned the problem is that this is a poor quality black tea base: it tastes bitter no matter what temp it is brewed at or how long it is steeped. The bitter, flat black tea overshadows the rose hints completely. This is a tea I wish I could return but be warned, this is not part of the seller's policy for this item. The packaging and presentation, on the other hand, is indeed beautiful and appears to be of great quality but this is a classic example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. The smell of the loose tea right out of the box was divine; the scent of the rose petals rreminded me of rose flavored turkish delights. I was excited and looking forward to a smooth, light and subtly sweet tea but this was underwhelming.

Very floral,. I’ve been blending it with Ceylon tea about 1:4. Did I hear someone gasp? Tried 1:1 with raspberry roiboos, iced. That was interesting, the color was glorious. The canister is lovely and seals well. Comes housed in a sturdy little cardboard box which survived shipping without inci-dent. Will try the second flush next, as Darjeeling is a favorite of mine for the afternoon. I expect second flush to be a bit less floral. Besides, I covet more of those lovely canisters.

While Lapsang Souchong is certain my favorite black tea, it's not all created or packed equally. This is certainly some of the most delicious Lapsang Souchong I've ever had, the smoothness is sweet and perfectly balances the smokiness. Drinking this is at once utterly relaxing and energetically motivating, perfectly illustrated by the iconic feline one finds on the delightful tin.Conveniently, the tin latches closed and is not too flimsy as such tins go. Additionally the tea arrived sealed securely within a high-quality bag inside the tin, and the tin itself was packed decently as well. My only complaint that this tea was so good I went through it faster than I should have; as such it may be a dangerous indulgence if you love good tea! So you should probably buy it.

This tea is delicious, however for the amount of tea in this tin, it was not a good value. The tin is well made, attractive and reusable so I suppose there is some value in that, that I'm not particularly appreciative of. 3.5 ounces of tea for $24.90 is too much to pay quite honestly. Vahdam Masala Chai tea is of equal quality and you can get of packet of 100 prefilled teabags in a resealable pouch for $17.99 and there are 7.05 ounces of tea in total in this package. I won't purchase this brand again. It's price is just quite to dear.

I've heard of Keemuns having a chocolate aroma/flavor before, but this is the first one it's been unambiguously true of. Well, the aroma is like chocolate, but the flavor is sort of a toasted grain flavor, which is something I might expect of some oolongs, but not Chinese black teas, especially Keemuns. It's pleasant enough—if you told me this was a roasted oolong, I'd give the flavor maybe 4 out of five, and I'll tell myself that's what this is when I drink it—but this just isn't what I expect of Keemuns. Nice canister, though.

Seriously overpriced considering the amount and quality

The first pot I brewed with the recommended ratio of tea to water was weaker than nun urine. The second pot I doubled the amount of tea and there was surprisingly little alteration in the potency. Maybe I'll just use this stuff as potpourri.
