I ordered this before reading the warnings about how this wasn't good for Western brewing (d'oh). It probably *is* best in a gaiwan, but for what it's worth I followed the brewing instructions for Western to the letter and still wound up with a really good cup with the unique mint and spice notes. Really, really glad I tried it and went out of my comfort zone for this one.

An excellent choice for a tea. It is a little fruity and a little malty. I like these flavors so this tea hits the spot. I’d buy it again.

I’m enjoying for this tea every, time ! Very Interesting flavor, I like this !

I enjoyed this tea, such rich flavour 💞the delivery also was quick! Will order again, thanks.

This Ruby 18 met me with confidence and warmth — an honest and well-spoken invitation to enter into relationship and explore it. Opening itself infusion after infusion, each one offers a new, subtle emphasis, grounded by soft floral and fruity tones. Never losing its dignity along the way, the tea carries the care of its cultivation and processing, and the depth of its terroir remains present in every step of the experience
