So I tried being an adult and drinking this without any additions. It was okay when I was sipping it in between bites of my breakfast, but on its own it was a tiny bit overwhelming. I didn’t taste any of the interesting flavors I normally pick up from Stacy’s straight teas; what I got was basically generic Black Tea and made my head feel funny. I think CTC black tea (aside from maybe Ceylon) without milk or sugar is probably not for me, but I probably will give this another try to see if I can get anything more from it.
