Whom You Know Recommends Kusmi Russian Evening N°50

This aspect of Russian Evening tea I enjoyed the most was that it had a lower amount of caffeine. I am actually fighting a pretty bad cold and I swear sipping this tea is making me feel better. I can easily see this tea being served in Russian homes on a cold winter night. It is comforting and delicious. The package is beautiful as well and would make a great present. I highly recommend Kusmi Tea. The Russian Evening flavor is really a must have in any one's tea collection. 

Low in caffeine, Kusmi Tea's Russian Evening Tea No. 50, is aptly named. A blend of black teas from China and Darjeeling, this tea is the perfect tea to enjoy when relaxing at night after a long day. It is suggested that this tea is enjoyed plain or sweetened. I opted for plain and very much enjoyed it! Founded in 1867 and established in Paris since 1917, Kusmi Tea is distributed all over the world. Their exquisite teas are known for their smoothness and pleasant taste. This is a lovely tea that can be enjoyed by anyone!

I seem to get far too much caffeine these days, so I choose to not get it from my tea. That is harder said than done. Especially if you want a unique flavor or scent. Kusmi Tea has a great option for you. It’s Russian Evening N50 is perfect for that relaxing tea before bed. A fabulous blend of black China and India teas makes for a luscious cup. Get in your nightie, brew up a cup of Russian Evening and let is smooth out the edges of the day.

Kusmi Russian Evening tea I simply love love love! The package is wonderful. The tea well it's simply delightful! I enjoy sipping this tea in the evening and really indulging myself. It reminds me of Paris. The aroma of this tea is simply enough to get your taste-buds dancing. I have to say it's perfect for a special occasion!
