Default Have I mentioned Cost Plus teas aren't all that good?

It's Darjeeling with the caveat what's in the box so well documented
in this group and by the industry. My favorite label by Brooke Bond
"100 percent Darjeeling". Commercial darjeeling at best is a blend of
darjeeling but you can find some commercial estate darjeeling in a
box. I don't like the packaging for CP because it isn't air tight. I
remember the first CP in my metro area in the late 80's. It had a
fantastic selection of loose and commercial teas but today is more for
the SUV owner psyched about health benefits. When it comes to
commercial teas find one you like and you will. One man's monkey ****
is anothers malt vinegar. I served fried catfish this weekend and I
worried about not enough malt vinegar but I should have made more
tartar and cocktail sauce.
