I decided to try something different. Instead of getting Upton's iced tea blend (which I like a lot) that is made from Ceylons and Darjeelings, why not get some Ceylons and Darjeelings and mix them together? This way I can also get to know the individual teas. This one did not let me down. It is on the mild side, but is not weak. There is a dash of caramel flavor when I make it with lemon, and mixing it with plant milk brings out some tannins. A good, budget-priced Darjeeling.
