Admittedly, black tea is not my favourite but with that being said, this wasn’t half bad. I received one tea bag as a freebie in with one of my David’s orders ages ago and just got around to drinking it now.
It brewed up a nice deep golden brown colour. The flavour was much milder, smoother and less bitter than I was expecting which was a pleasant surprise. It pretty much tastes like your usual breakfast tea but this one is definitely better than your average, run-of-the-mill variety.
I stayed up too late last night, binging Season 2 of Cheer on Netflix so this tea worked well for me this morning, assisting me with a much needed boost.
I do love that it re-steeped quite well and managed to retain a good amount of flavour.
I enjoyed my complementary bag but have no need to purchase it.

Flavors: Earthy, Malt, Smooth, Tannic

Bio

I’ve been a member of Steepster since 2014 and decided to finally update my ancient Bio now that it’s 2022. (Updating again in 2024!)

I’ve loved tea my entire life, since I was a kid. Starting with Orange Pekoe, then Irish Breakfast, Rosehip, Earl Grey, Green and White and now, I’ll drink or at least try, just about any tea.

One of my favourite things to do is meeting my friends at the coffee shop, sitting and sipping for hours while we chat and laugh and enjoy each other. We try to do this at least once a week or when our work schedules match up. Tea and coffee brings people together!

I live in Ontario, Canada and work at a Winners/Homesense combo store.
I have a 12 year old cat, Tucker, who is diabetic and asthmatic (and completely toothless) but still enjoys his life to the fullest and he truly is the sweetest boy.(Tucker sadly passed away in 2023, one month after he turned 14.)

I don’t always post every single time I drink tea, I’m kind of sporatic that way but I do enjoy reading what you all are drinking and your reviews.

Stay safe and healthy!
