Our Review: WHY does this cost so much!? It's not some fancy Chinese import tea. It's just a normal box of black tea imported from France. You may as well buy PG Tips or Yorkshire Tea - it would certainly taste and smell better.
Shockingly, this one contains real vanilla. We say 'shockingly' because this is one of the most artificial-smelling blends we've tried - and the taste is essentially black tea with a very faint hint of artificial vanilla flavouring.There is no point to this blend. Who in their right mind buys and keeps it on the market? A quick online search will show that other tea-lovers agree. We would never have tried it ourselves if it hadn't mysteriously found its way into the cupboard at our office and therefore been free to taste. No doubt some unsuspecting tea-drinker bought a box and thought to pawn it off on colleagues because they couldn't bear another sip themselves.
AVOID.
