I ordered a sample of this and have had 3 cups - I LOVE it and intend to add it to my favorites list from now on. A light and delicate mix - takes well to a small addition of milk but equally good plain. I usually order single estate teas but am discovering the joys of some blended teas as well . . . subtle flavors emerge as the cup cools and the individual tastes of each tea become more apparent.

What a fascinating blend! The dry leaf is wonderfully floral from the darjeeling and oolong. The infused tea brings out the bright flavor of highland ceylon, the other teas adding depth and fragrance. A rich, lingering finish follows. (The oolong?) A real find!

Good tea for the price. Need to be stepped longer (5 min. minimum) to have the flavor extracted, however.

I first ordered this as a sample. I have kept a supply on hand ever since. Please, when you first open a fresh bag do not be shocked how wonderful the scent of this tea is. 5 o'clock has a pleasing tea flavor, captivating aroma, and it leaves you with an aftertaste that can only compel you towards another sip. A Chardonnay of teas.

This tea, much to my surprise, has nudged English Breakfast Tea out of its "Most Favored Tea" status! The flavor is wonderful; and it doesn't get nasty or stale tasting, even after the leaves been sitting in the pot a while. Impressive!

This is the perfect tea for your afternoon cuppa with milk. If you like Mt. Everest Blend, then you will enjoy this one. It is slightly less bracing than Mt. Everest, but more flavorful. I alternate between the two blends, although this one currently is my slight favorite. (Perhaps Mt. Everest is not as good as it used to be? I don't know.)
