I’m on my 3rd cup of this. Only because I’m trying to multi-task and not doing a very good job with it! LOL
This is pretty standard for a black tea – medium strength, medium briskness and crispness, and slightly bitter. Overall it’s enjoyable but doesn’t really stand out among the other Black Tea offering from Upton.
As advertised: crisp, gentle, light.
I only steeped 2 minutes rather than the recommended 3 minutes, though, being nervous about bitterness with such a small broken leaf. Nice, mellow and inoffensive. Nothing I’ll be replacing but with so many cups possible with the smallest size available to purchase, it will take awhile to work through this one. I suspect it will become a candidate for plain old iced tea over the summer. That’s where most of my good but not awesome blacks end up. :)
