Additional notes: I tried this tea during the Beehive poetry evening session at Bradford. Library (England). 

It was a proper black tea as it should be making my face go pinched and there was nothing remarkable about this brew.

I added the price that I found at a Tesco shop.

*I cut down on the manufacturer’s description as I could not see the rest of the information relevant enough.

Also, whether it tastes lovely, is hard to say.

Bags: It was almost an excellence quality representation of tea as tea bags were put into a paper sachet. If the manufacturer would use foil for bag sachets as Greenfeld used to do then it would be absolute perfection.

Manufacturer: Unknown

Additional notes: I would like to agree with the manufacturer that it was deliciously fresh peppermint infusion. I loved every single sip of this tea.
