On of my favorites!
This tea is rich, fruity, with a hint for floral that enhances the flavor without making it perfume-y.

Tastes Like: candied violet, elderberry, incense
Feels Like: stargazing on an empty beach
Our favorite smoky floral afternoon tea. Now in tea bags for the first time This tea that is so uniquely delicious, it makes people leave other brands for good.
The aroma of darkly seductive violet flowers fills the air. In the first sip purple flowers meet dark elderberry and ripe blackberry. This is a magical black, oolong, and smoked tea blend with rich floral and black berry notes. Berry flavors are deepened by slatey tannins. A faint smokiness lingers in the finish, reminiscent of far-off incense and candle smoke from the smoked lapsang souchong tea. A touch of milk softens the tannins and brightens the berry and floral flavors. An elegant tea for afternoon or with a special dessert. A tea for lovers of violet, dark berries, and incense.
Ingredients
yunnan black tea, formosa finest oolong tea, taiwanese lapsang souchong black tea, blue mallow flowers, flavors of violet and rose

As Seen On
This tea is rich, fruity, with a hint for floral that enhances the flavor without making it perfume-y.
My daughter is really fond of this tea.
My favorite ❤️
This is my wonderful favorite tea! Great 'bouquet'. The flavor stays with you long after the last sip. Excellent hot or iced!
First of all, this smells incredible. The fruity notes are definitely strong. I primarily taste dark berries, with a slight floral aftertaste and some astringency from the tannins. I could do with a slightly stronger black tea flavor, but I like exceptionally strong tea so I imagine that this tea will be a crowd pleaser. It reminds me of a black currant tea, if you're a fan of that you'll like this.
