Description

Closely related to currants, gooseberries are an acquired taste that is a favorite in the northern European regions. Among the first fruits of spring and summer, they have a refreshing tart taste with a fruity aroma. This black tea blend brews to a deep amber cup with a strong, sweet berry taste. Definitely a favorite here!

Ingredients: black teas, hibiscus, gooseberry flavoring, and alfalfa leaf.
