This tea blend apparently was created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the RMS Titanic (which was in 1912/2012). The blend was designed to imitate the type of tea that would have been available on the voyage, using a combination of Chinese Keemun black tea and Formosa oolong.
If you like tea that tastes like tea and nothing else, this is the brew for you. It's a rich, multi-layered tea flavor that keeps on giving with a smooth, clean aftertaste. It stands up to honey and other sweetener without becoming cloying. It also doesn't get bitter when you forget the cup and it gets over-steeped. Since I got this blend for Christmas it has become my go-to morning tea, and I'm going to buy some more once the tin I have runs out.
