Each tea bag is a 'pyrmaid infuser'. It is a good way to let the tea breathe a little bit, and spread out. The leaves have a lovely sweet floral scent. I steeped the tea for the 4 minutes recommended on the box. The tea has a faint floral fragrance, along with a hint of that Darjeeling muscatel. These aromas translate to the taste of the tea, but they are much weaker. There is a bitterness that dominates, pushing the other flavors to the background. It is a convenient bagged tea to keep around the office, and fine for every day drinking. It is a strong tea, which I definitely need in the morning hours.
