A Perennial
The tea that hooked me into Silver Tips - a mellow flavor that all my guests and I love, and my automatic go-to when I want relax and savor my moments.

A bit astringent
This is not the tea I am used to (ancient forest black). There is a sharpness to it. That is the nice part about the 2oz samples. You can try different teas looking for new tastes and textures. I will experiment with iced tea with this and see how that goes. I will also try it as a Kombucha base. The astringency might be refreshing in that form.
