Ever since colonial times, the English have created tea blends, (Darjeeling, Assam, Ceylon etc), using varying proportions depending on the time of day: teas with more body in the morning and lighter ones in the afternoon. In line with this tradition Le Palais des Thés has created blends whose balance is geared to different moments of the day.
A very good blend of Yunnan and Assam. Both mild and invigorating, round and spicy, it is a successful blend of the main characteristics of both teas.
This tea is grown organically and USDA certified, an accredited independent certification body.
Suggestion of preparation
With the tasting set: 4' minutes in water heated to 195°F.

Big Ben is my daily standard. Just a superior tea all around, superb in taste, tannin, and strength.

This was a great surprise to me as I wasn't familiar with the teas used in the blend. I've enjoyed it very much, especially in the morning.
