I would give this delicious tea 5 stars were it not for a 'natural' flavor added to the tea.  I am not sure, and I do not want to start any conflict with Harney & Sons, inc.  I love their teas, have for decades.  My body systems have become more "reactive" to food stuffs that never gave me a problem before, Harney  'E.G.S.' Tea is one of those items.  After 1 cup I started to break out in giant, angry red blotches on my face, neck, and dcolletage.  I thought it was a delayed reaction to something I ate earlier.  So, I tried my second cup, at which point the severe HIVES and angry rashes started faster, were much larger, and also painful, but horrifically itchy.  My delicate facial skin the following day was rough, with the actual tactile feeling of burlap combined with sandpaper, but worse.  At which point I knew this delicious tea was no longer my "boyfriend' and the break-up would be immediate.
