Other reviews of this tea seemed to be about the bagged variety, so I hope it's OK to create a new category.
This is the first loose leaf tea I ever tried, mostly because it's the only one I could find. It's about $10 for 7ozs. at Cost Plus.
It has a faint smell in the can. It has small leaves with flecks of gold. It brews up clear and dark red with a pleasant but not strong aroma. It's smooth with a slightly sweet taste with just a bit of a bitter after taste.
It's a good tea, and while I'm pleased to have found a world of high quality tea, this is still something I'd happily drink.
