I wasn't impressed with this tea and found it quite bitter, which was a bit disappointing since I like so many other teas by Arbor Teas! I don't have any complaints about their pricing or the scent of the tea, which was average, but I didn't like the taste at all. After finding the flavor to be too sour and strong on my first cup, I decided to try a second with fresh leaf and cooler water. The bitter taste was toned down on my second try, but I still wasn't that impressed. I much rather prefer a more subtle green tea.
