Quite simply, I want to recommend this tea. I'd been looking for a way to wean myself off of chai tea lattes when I spotted Ginger Peach Longevity Tea and decided to try it. The ginger is very subtle--I'm not convinced I taste it at all--and the peach is soft and delicious, the black tea exquisite. What also strikes me is the smoothness of the blend. It's perfect in the morning with breakfast; as a black tea it contains more caffeine than most teas, though not as much as coffee. And I like it with a bit of honey (to brighten the flavor and cut any hint of bitterness, particularly if you've over-steeped). Tastes best when it's cooled a bit to a gentle warmth, not steaming hot. It's also supposed to be excellent iced, though I've only tasted it hot. Enjoy!
