this tea is the bomb, for the real die-hard industrial-strength tea drinker who likes their tea indian or middle eastern style (especially when sweet, though no milk for me, please). clear, robust, flavorful, it brews up a lovely red liquor in less time than it takes to find your favorite teacup, and is also a great base into which to blend more expensive teas (kusmi russian evening or morning tea, for example) for special occasions--like this beautiful may morning's breakfast on the porch. if i were an ancient egyptian and i were leaving instructions for what to put in my tomb to supply the afterlife in amenti, i would ask for this. lots of this. amen.
