Truth is, when I read loose-leaf tastes better than tea bags, I was reluctant. A marketing gimik? But when I tried loose-leaf tea for the first time, I was blown away! The flavors are stronger, more invigorating! Even the aroma, from the moment I open the can, wow! This tin can purchase made a convert out of me. I recommend the black teas, FOCUS bundle for working people like me. Feeling alert yet chill with every brew. Excited to purchase more!
