broad spectrum of flavours Review by Lance, Sydney, Australia
Both the Lopchu teas are indeed a great drink - broad spectrum of flavours, good palate weight with no overt intrusion of tannin. The strength of flavour means that relatively little tea is required to make a very satisfying cup of tea, to our taste.
