Very good basic black, full bodied taste and no bitterness. It brewed up a deep golden red, and there is a very faint hint of fruit in the taste, but exactly what I’m not sure, perhaps cherry. It’s yummy with or without milk.
I don’t know if this is available commercially. I received it as a part of a tea-and-yarn club – The Unique Sheep “Sip-n-Stitch” club – and my package included Goddess Persephone tea, a tea infuser, and hand-dyed organic cotton/bamboo yarn in the Persephone colourway. It may be that this was blended just for the club. And at the moment the Goddess Teas online shop is under maintenance, so I can’t check. I will write and ask, though, as this is definitely a tea that I would purchase again.
