Perfect taste

This black gold tea has earned its name. I’m very picky about my tea but this organic black tea greatly exceeded my expectations! I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes dark tea. It goes perfectly with pumpkin flavored desserts 😊

Hubby's 2nd Favorite

This is my hubby's back up to the English Breakfast Tea -

I personally prefer this one myself to the English as it has a stronger tea taste.

He alternates between the English and this tea nightly. Glad we tried it.

Black Gold

What a loose leaf tea should be. Tea in bags tends to be more towards powder. This tea has the appearance of premium tea - long strands of tea with a great taste.
