Review of Prince of Wales (Loose)

I felt at the first sip of this tea like swallowing a gulf of bonfire smoke, or, say, some embers (for its slightly-sweet finish). When I have a one-hundred-gram tin of Prince of Wales, a cuppa at afternoon tea time would bring me a shot in the arm in my dull everyday routines as if to go camping on a weekend and have a stick of seared marshmellows by fireworks. Prinince of Wales tasted light and delightful that way. This tea was too weak in taste and faint in aroma to please my cranky palate to the fullest. Nevertheless, it is a good starter for cambric tea if you are not familiar with the bitterness of black tea.
