It's very pricy for me to order this for delivery to the UK, but I do that, so take that as a concrete indication of my appreciation. If you like Earl Grey, try this. The paradox is that I am nto an Earl Grey lover - my tea preferences tend more towards Assam or Lapsang Souchong. This is not simply a black tea, it is a spiced tea similar to Earl Grey. I was introduced to this tea by two friends from St. I am slightly confused by the two previous reviews of this tea, which state that it is not flavoured. Petersburg who gave me an open box during the course of a visit. However for me this rea gets that extra taste just right.
It's kind of pricey, but work every penny.You can find this tea in many local European and Russian deli stores, and usually goes for around $6-8 for 250 grams. Now days lot's of tea companies add "flavoring" to tea to make it fruity or nutty or what have you, this one is PURE. The two teas are completely different and the other one does add flavoring to it, I'm not saying it's bad, just different. I have been drinking tea ALL my life and this tea "Russian Royal Tea" is at the top of my list. This tea is bold and very rich in flavor, it's pure Cylonian tea leaf packed in Sri Lanka. But be careful there seems to be a look a like tea with similar name and label, it comes in a "soft" paper package, while this one comes in "hard" cardboard like package.
This tea is so fresh, smooth, and invigorating that anyone who tries it will be in concurrence. As a daily tea drinker, my husband and I found this at an ethnic grocery, but that was the last time I could find it until VOILA Amazon had it. It's black Ceylon/Sri Lanka tea.
