Organic Rose Tea Loose Leaf -3.5 OZ- Finest Moroccan Rose Petals and Ceylon Black Tea.

Love this tea! The tea leaves are a little large for my strainer, but they break up well if you want them smaller. Cute canister!

I was very pleased to find this uncommon Japanese black tea cultivar from Pantenger. The tea is unusual because it has a natural floral/fruity undertone without added flavoring compounds. Highly recommended for the tea connoisseur who's looking for something different.

I like this tea. It has a good flavor and lasts longer than I expected. Also love the tin.

Update: The shop owner reached out to me personally and kindly offered me a refund. I appreciate this and have upgraded my rating due to the pleasant transaction. That said, this tea was not a match for me.Rose teas are usually delicate in taste, especially when the base is black tea--however--this tea was seriously lacking in flavor and taste. As far as I'm concerned the problem is that this is a poor quality black tea base: it tastes bitter no matter what temp it is brewed at or how long it is steeped. The bitter, flat black tea overshadows the rose hints completely. This is a tea I wish I could return but be warned, this is not part of the seller's policy for this item. The packaging and presentation, on the other hand, is indeed beautiful and appears to be of great quality but this is a classic example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. The smell of the loose tea right out of the box was divine; the scent of the rose petals rreminded me of rose flavored turkish delights. I was excited and looking forward to a smooth, light and subtly sweet tea but this was underwhelming.

Taste is amazing.

WOW!

I've heard of Keemuns having a chocolate aroma/flavor before, but this is the first one it's been unambiguously true of. Well, the aroma is like chocolate, but the flavor is sort of a toasted grain flavor, which is something I might expect of some oolongs, but not Chinese black teas, especially Keemuns. It's pleasant enough—if you told me this was a roasted oolong, I'd give the flavor maybe 4 out of five, and I'll tell myself that's what this is when I drink it—but this just isn't what I expect of Keemuns. Nice canister, though.

Great improvement compared to Twinings. It doesn't smell or taste artificial. You won't feel like you're drinking perfume. If you compare it to Twinings (even before brewing), you can clearly see the difference in texture , size and fragrance. Plus this is organic.It is better to brew black tea because you get the most out of the tea; the color, the aroma, & the taste will be VERY VERY different than making it as a tea bag.I use about one cup boiling water with 1 TBsp of tea in a small ceramic pot. For brewing, I use a stove kettle. After bringing it to boil, bring the heat back down to very low. Leave the teapot on for 10 to 15 min, not more.I pour about 1/3 black tea in a cup and 2/3 boiling water on top. Depending on how dark or light I want my tea, I change the ratio.
