A centuries old tea blend that was so sought after in Russia that special caravans were commissioned to personally deliver it to the Czar. Legend states that the tea froze every night, which decreased the smokiness until it was a light background note. An intriguing blend of black teas that brews into a pleasing cup of tea.
