I like black tea brewed on the strong side. No matter the strength, it finishes smoothly with no bitterness. Good in the morning or afternoon. I prefer it with raw sugar, but would also be good with milk.

This Ceylon tea tastes fresh and pure. It is the
only Ceylon tea which reminds me of the great
afternoon tea I had in Britain. Great with milk
and sugar.
