A friend brought this back from Europe for me. The caption on this tea cracks me up...'prickelndem' is translated as 'scintillating', and the combination of "typical" (which does not have the same connotation as the German "typischer") leads to a bit of a contradiction: "A typical Ceylon tea with a scintillating flavour."
But I found this tea very typical for a Ceylon, and not at all prickelndem or scintillating. A bit muted...not particularly crisp or brisk. Medium-bodied. Good, if nondescript. On par with Twinings' Ceylon, another good tea bag Ceylon.
