I may finally have found that elusive unicorn of tea -- a bottled black ice tea that tastes like really good black tea, with no sweetener or weird aftertastes. In the grocery store this morning, I found Teas' Tea bottled black tea, which advertised itself as "unsweetened" and "rich & subtle."
This is a serious tea drinker's tea. It tastes like tea, with tea-like qualities and tea flavors. And it's strong black tea. As in, "I probably lost a layer of enamel on my teeth" strong and "I hope I don't drop this on my desk and dissolve a layer of varnish on the wood" strong. Probably strong enough for +Rhiannon theCurious. But it's oh so delicious for people who love the inherent taste of tea. After little diluting with water (about 1/4 water to 3/4 tea), it has been a perfect morning wake-up tea.
I found this tea in King's, but I bet it will also be available in Wegman's or any similar upscale grocery store. It's also available for ordering on-line.
