There are 20 counts in the package. The tea came in convenient triangle-shaped tea bags, making it easy to brew and enjoy. The taste was smooth with a slightly earthy undertone from the mushrooms.
This is a nice English breakfast (Keemun) style tea with good full flavor. I steep one bag for five minutes in about 8 oz of water. The mushroom flavors are subtle, in the background. They don't 'muddy' the flavor of the cup. I'm a great fan of mushrooms, they've been used medicinally for thousands of years. Here is a good way to add them to your diet without the earthy tastes they so often have.
This is a very smooth English breakfast tea. It’s good without sugar or cream, even when you accidentally oversteep it (which I often do). It has a good flavor and smells nice too. Also I like the pyramid bags.
I've been wanting to try mushroom tea for a while, and really like this one. I prepared it black first to get the full effect, and definitely detected mushroom - the smell especially was almost of cooking mushrooms!
Served with oat milk, that flavor was significantly less pronounced, and tasted a lot more like regular black tea. So I'd say if you're not into the mushroom flavor but are interested in the proposed health benefits (a word of caution - these aren't scientifically verified) I'd recommend serving with your favorite milk.
This is a good cup of tea. It's very smooth, robust and not bitter. It's very much a traditional black tea but with more depth and umami. It's not overtly "mushroomy" and very enjoyable! I really appreciate that I can get more than one cup of strong tea out of these bags.
