Well, this feels like sacrilege. A tea grown in the U.S. of A.? And from the south? Well I suppose the climate is good enough for rice. Well how does it taste? I would say it’s a bit mild, hints of nuttiness like almond. It doesn’t have much of its own sweetness. It’s okay. Nothing special, but worth giving a few more tries (since it was a gift) I’d be interested in buying whole leaf and trying it loose someday.
It’s certainly better than any number of bagged teas though.
I put milk and sugar in it.

Their American Classic is a better-than-averaged “stock” bagged tea. I do like the notion of a homegrown American tea.
Be sure to check out all the teas offered from the Charleston Tea Plantation, from the original American Classic to our loose teas.
