Company description not available.
I made this first with a moderately-heaped teaspoon steeped for two and a half minutes, the instructions being for two to three. I wasn’t too impressed so I made the next with a well-heaped teaspoon brewed for three minutes.
I got a little hint of rust or metal in the aroma.
There was a tiny hint of that rust/metal in the flavour, as well. Otherwise the flavour was just basic tea – good basic tea, though. I didn’t get any complexity to the flavour, though.
I’d describe this as a simple, old-fashioned cup of tea – a good cup of tea but nothing at all special.
