We were excited to try this unusual tea, but we were so disappointed. The lapsang smokiness was nearly undetectable, and the floral notes tasted like perfume instead of actual floral flavors. There is also a very unpleasant, almost metallic mid-high note and aftertaste with all of their teas that we tried that renders them, for us, undrinkable. We have encountered this taste in other flavored teas sold by lower-end tea sellers. Better quality flavored teas such as those sold by Adagio and other sellers use better quality flavorants. We had to throw the entire bag away. What a shame.

Like a summery wine, there's a rich floral taste with no trace of perfumey flavor, and a deep "grapey" body. I highly recommend it for fans of unorthodox teas.
