Himalayan Wine soon my favorite

I ordered the Himalayan Wine tea for the first time. I'm having my first cup right now, and I am pleasantly surprised. This may become my favorite tea! I love the full bodied taste, and yes, it has a slight hint of wine.

Poor packaging

I have received the Tea vey nicely packed and sent, but the packet provided for keeping the tea was torn and was reported to you on WhatsApp. Till date no clarification received. If we get such service from you then this will be my last order.

Red as wine

The Himalayan wine tea is a delight. I love the aroma and flavor of this tea. The steeping process is very important. If you over do it, it tastes a bit bitter. I prefer to steepen it for 4-6 mins. I let it stay for a while (1 min) before i drink it. The after taste is really good. Does not make your mouth dry. I prefer to drink this blend either in the morning/afternoon.
