Parameters of Category: Black Tea
Tea Facts	Black tea is probably the most familiar of the five classes of tea and is the result of allowing the harvested tea leaves to completely oxidize before drying. Oxidization, in terms of tea, is the process of allowing the leaves to wilt as the chlorophyll within them breaks down and tannins are released. This oxidation process, known in the industry as fermentation, can take between two weeks to a month after which time, the tea is dried using some form of heat.
Steeping Instructions	Black tea should be steeped 4-6 minutes in boiling (212-degree) water. Darjeelings are the exception, and should be steeped 2-3 minutes.

I wasnt sure how well I would like this tea, but I decided to try it anyway. Oh, yummy! I dont usually like "spice" flavored items, but
this tea was light and delightful. I had it both Hot and Cold and thoroughly enjoyed it both ways. Thumbs up!
