Found some old tea bag again in huge bags of tea bags. No idea about age. No idea how the box looks like because Google search have not found any. No idea where is Oaks estate as I have found nothing about it.

But tea is good. Not really great, but maybe because of age. It is malty, bit of citrus zest flavour, drying. I wish getting it fresher – but I have not found any sources.

Flavors: Citrus Zest, Drying, Malt

Preparation
Boiling 4 min, 0 sec 10 OZ / 300 ML

Camellia Sinensis or Vahdam might have tea from Oaks Estate, though I haven’t been on their websites in a while and you’d have to check. If you’re just looking for some good, relatively inexpensive Darjeeling, I’ve liked the ones from What-Cha, especially their Rohini Golden Buds. I’m not sure if any of these companies will ship to you.

Vahdam don’t have it. Camelloa sinesis I should check.
What-cha ships here, thanks for reccomodation.

Oaks makes some good stuff. I think I’ve had at least one Oaks tea from each of the three major flushes. I know that Teabox carries stuff from the Oaks Estate. I recall being a big fan of their Oaks Classic Summer Chinary Black Tea. You also may want to try Tealyra. I know they occasionally bring in teas from Oaks. Keep in mind that I have no clue what shipping costs would be like to your area with either of these vendors.

Eastkyteaguy: Thanks for wodnerful answer, yep – I have found out that Teabox ships to CZ, but for 10 dollars shipping fee. That is quite steep for me. Tealyra do not offer Oaks now :)
At least I have something to explore :)

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
