This is from a sampler set I got as a gift, the "winter collection".
This is a nice flavored black tea. The flavoring is not very powerful, but that is fine with me.
Post-Steep Additives: none
Resteep: It was a sad and weak resteep that totally lost all the smoothness and dark black tea flavor. (3 minutes) not recommended for resteeping.
Rating: 2/3
