Kathy H★★★★★

I did not expect to enjoy this tea and was pleasantly surprised. I prefer this tea sweetened, but it is tasty unsweetened to and wonderful served cold. To me, it is a great choice for an afternoon perk up.

The U of A Blend is a delightful twist on the Vintage Fork Blend, with a subtle floral note . I alternate between the two most days. Both are the perfect cup of tea, in my.opinion ;)

Jillian Gordash★★★★★

Perfectly balanced aroma and flavour, both bright and rich with subtle floral notes. Even if you're not a fan of florals, give it a try -- it's not overly perfumey or cloying at all. Nothing is overpowering, just a lovely blend.
