Foojoy Black Tea !

3$ for 100tbags (Hong Kong Supermarket, NY)
the box has 2 plastic sheets that cover the bags from top & bottom! and then close the box cover!
a very pleasant flavor(imho): black, i think keemun-like, + a bit "aged", low astringency, its actually very NOT brisk
its kinda slow to infuse, so i think i leave it for more than 4 minutes, (i use 1 bag in ~6oz), astringency remains low. tastes good cold as well.
this is the most tastiest(flavor, low astr) black teabag i've had, and the price is very low.

try 2 bags.....
“Take some more tea,” the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
“I’ve had nothing yet,” Alice replied in an offended tone: “so I ca’n’t take more.”
“You mean you ca’n’t take less,” said the Hatter: “it’s very easy to take more than nothing.”
