Lots of rose flavor and aroma mixed with a Chinese black tea makes for a lovely cup! It doesn't taste artificial at all - I'm guessing the rose effect is coming from real roses. It is pretty mild and goes down easily. The price ($5 for 100 grams in 2018) is fantastic, given the quality.

The first thing you notice with this tea is the overpowering perfume of roses, it is like walking into a rose garden during full summer and everything is in bloom. It is not at all unpleasant or artificial smelling.
The taste is sublime, it is like drinking a rose garden with a really lovely black tea. Subtly sweet, this tea seems both bold and delicate at the same time. It would be the perfect tea for a Victorian style tea party.
