This is lovely stuff. Picked up from my local corner shop. It's a herbal tea rather than a flavoured tea - there is no tea plant in the ingredients. The ingredients are licorice and various fruits and spices: ginger, orange, cloves, cinnamon, etc. It's a delicate yet rich flavour, with attractive sweet spots of licorice.
The tea is made by Yogi Products, who make over 60 different varieties. The box is attracted decorated, and contains information about the history of licorice tea - apparently some licorice root was found in Tutankhamon's tomb. The company was formed in 1984 - it takes its roots from Yogi Bhajan, an Indian yoga teacher, who back in 1969 in California gave his clients a special spiced tea they started to call Yogi Tea.
