I take a pot of lapsang souchong tea weekly for something different. And it is different! I thoroughly enjoy it.
I never find london fogs to have a strong enough flavor for me, but here's the solution. Very impactful and pleasant flavor, will be purchasing again once I run out!
Really nice strong bergamot and tea flavor. I did have the thought after buying a sample size that if it's just ground up earl gray, maybe I could just put a scoop of my favorite loose leaf into a spice grinder, and I will say that the answer there is no, it's not comparable - everything I tried still left me with a coarse, gritty semi-powder that clumped and didn't taste as strong and nice as this.
I have been using peach apricot tea bags to make sun tea for years and just love it!!
I love it. The vibrant color, crisp tart flavor of the leaves…just lovely…I keep wanting another cup….




Has a wonderful earthy/grassy undercurrent, yet robust enough to satisfy a lover of black teas. It's also the only tea my wife, a coffee hound, will touch. All in all, a satisfying, yet relaxing tea.
