Tea Review: Rishi Chinese Breakfast Tea

Review: I think Rishi’s China Breakfast is a pretty bland tea and have a hard time distinguishing any of the tasting notes listed. I was expecting a rich, black tea. Unfortunately, it reminded me of Lipton. I tried brewing it as an iced tea as temperature can some times change the overall enjoyment. Sadly, it […]
