FRENCH BLEND LOOSE TEA:
Flavor notes from 'creme de la vanille', Earl Grey, Jasmine and Lavender deliciously blended with estate black teas. From Assam the richness, from Ceylon a saucy but sprightly flavor, from Kenya a superb golden color, from China the delicate perfume of Jasmine, and from France to cement the 'French' character lavender along with rose petals. Ooh-la-la!
