Then is it possible that the same thing is going on with Ahmad as is with Lipton? Different teas for different countries? My tin is very, very different. It's an octagon rather than a rectangle, red rather than green, with a lovely painting on the front.
That could explain the difference in tastes too. (sorry for the photo. I shot it with my phone.)

It will be a while before I try it though.

Stranger and stranger... This tin cost me ¥950. 225gm of Yorkshire Tea costs me ¥1750, 225gm of East India Company Royal Breakfast tea runs about ¥2100 and their Assam even more costly! I wonder what accounts for the price of tea in different countries...
