This is one of the best teas I’ve bought from St. James! Wish they would add it to their regular listing of teas. I’m sorry it is gone ☹️

If I could give this tea ten stars, I would! This tea is absolutely delectable! The aroma alone is sublime and then you take your first sip and it is truly one of the best teas I’ve ever had! Please bring it back full time!
