Does anyone know what percentage of the white blueberry tea is actually white tea and not other flavoring/ingredients?

White tea makes up the vast percentage.... a little flavoring, etc, goes a looong way!

white blueberry question

I got my first shipment of the White Blueberry tea today. I was so excited (my favorite tea and my favorite flavor? What could be better?). When I first looked at the tea, the blueberries were fuzzy. I figured it was probably a normal thing to happen to things in tea (I'd seen a similar thing to a much smaller extent in my White Pear) and it was no problem.
I brewed up a pot in my new Beehouse teapot and had just had two glorious sips when my phone called to tell me a meeting had been rearanged and I was needed.
Three hours later, I came back to my tea.
It was cold, yes, but as soon as I went to drink it I saw a skin the likes of which I'd never seen before. When I stuck my finger in it, it came out covered with a black slimy skin. I know this isn't normal for all tea or all white tea, because I've left tea standing for that time before. When I went to wash it off, it was harder to get off than a week old tea stain. (Yes, I know, I should take better care of my dishes!)
So, moral is -
is this normal?
I don't want to make anymore of the tea until I know for sure. I've never had a problem with adagio tea before, so 'problem' isn't my default assumption, but I can't afford to get sick right now.
Does this happen to you? Any ideas? Any hints on how to make it not happen again?
Thanks!

The White BB is my favorite Adagio tea

I am still new here and trying a number of different ones. Some, I really didn't like. The white blueberry was wonderful. Going to try peach next. :P
