The smell of this tea is quite sweet and chocolatey so I was initially worried about the flavour, but the taste is much more complex with undertones of citrus for balance. I really enjoyed this tea and will buy again.
Tea arrived on time and nicely packaged. The flavours are marvellous and make a delicious cup of tea.
Thank you

I finish the day with a cup of this warming tea. The ginger is a great combination with mint to warm you up in the winter evenings
This was a gift for my son who loves rooibos tea. He has not tried them all but enjoyed it so far and especially to brew loose tea is a different taste and experience. I would like to note that the customer service is outstanding. Thank you
I've tried this tea twice now and each time, I've found the flavour to have undertones that are a bit too perfumey for me- first time I thought I'd used a cup that hadn't had all the soap rinsed from it when it was washed, but the same flavour was there the second time...Not for me. Which is a shame beacause I am enjoying the others that I purchased - Assam and Darjeeling. Also bought Sencha but haven't tried it yet....
I have tasted three decaf teas from Shibui now (English Breakfast and Darjeeling) and this is my personal favourite. I prefer a deeply flavoursome tea and therefore the Assam is right up my street. I'll be ordering more.
