Black tea is a leaf that has been fully oxidized. This rigorous oxidization produces a tea of hearty rich flavors while reducing its astringency and bringing out a natural sweetness.

Flavors will range from bright, brisk, peppery, clean, and smoky to aromatic, bold, malty, nutty, spicy, and sweet. Blacks are known for long, delicately aromatic, and comforting aftertastes. Note, they are often enjoyed with milk or sweetener.

    Not What I Expected

    Posted by Benjamin Sawyer on 27th May 2021

    I knew it was supposed to have a sweet flavor. I didn't expect it to have a chemical sweetness on the nose and taste. There is even a chemical after taste that lingers. Not refreshing at all for me. I'm very disappointed. I won't buy this again. I probably can't return it either having opened the 1/4 pound bag.

    Lichee Congou.....ICED!

    Posted by Meredith Sterling on 15th Aug 2019

    I had this iced tea at one of my favorite local spots here in Kansas City. Snapped a pic of it as it was the best iced tea I’d ever tasted! Now I can have it anytime I want at home! Thank you, more than I can say, thank you!!!!

    So delish!

    This is one of my favorite flavored black teas! Such great quality. Doesn’t taste artificial or perfumed at all like a lot of other brands of flavored teas.

    Delicious and naturally sweet.

    We love this hot or iced. I only didn’t give it 5 stars because I wish it were organic.

    Great for ice tea

    Posted by tony on 20th Feb 2017

    Has a nice naturally sweet taste and can be drunk without sweeteners. Doesn't finish well when served hot.

    Wonderful lychee tea with hints of grape and rose.

    Posted by Blodeuyn at Steepster on 14th Dec 2015

    The hot infusion smells wonderfully of lychee with a delicate undertone of grapes and roses. White hot, the liquor has a dominate essence of lychee and a suggestion of sugary rose. As the cup cools, notes of hibiscus mingle with the lychee and the floral undertone is less pronounced. This tea lingers pleasantly on the palate and I think it would be wonderfull chilled.

This is a great choice for a well-made iced tea. Elevates the quality of the popular mid-day beverage.
