A brisk Ceylon black tea with a bright lemon flavour, in 25 tea bags from Battler. Each 2 g bag is sealed in foil, so the citrus aroma holds up from the first cup to the last.
The maker places this pack in its fruit-flavoured black tea bag line and uses double-chamber bags, which give the water room to move through the leaf. It is a handy everyday lemon tea for the office or the kitchen.
In the pack

- Each bag foil-sealed
- Printed carton

Amber in the cup, with a brisk black tea body and a clean lemon tang on the finish. The citrus is lively but not sour.
