Superb Black Tea from The Excellent Tea Company

Upon tasting this one, it quickly reminded me of a general black tea. Not bad, but not my preferred style. I pretty quickly decided to go ahead and add creamer, as I think that improves many of the less interesting black teas, and it certainly helped here.
I can't see the prices on the website, but others have menti...
