    Great Quality

    This is a lovely and wonderful tea, however, the packaging it comes in is slightly disappointing. I'm not sure why it couldn't be presented in a nice caddy as the tea would not only retain it's flavour and smell better, but would also be aesthetically more pleasing than a sealed bag.

    Lovely tea

    I’ve been having this tea for some time now. I look forward to a nice cup or two in the mornings. The flavour is lovely and i manage to get 3 mugs out of one tablespoon scoop, when using my tea pot. I would definitely recommend this tea and will continue to purchase it while I can afford to do so

    Great Refreshing Tea

    Ceylon Breakfast Tea is refreshing to drink with milk. I feel comfortable to drink 2 pots of it at a sitting without any caffeine overload.
