Notes:
This might be an unfairly positive review because of context. I had this at a diner during a recent road trip. The day before had a long travel day, a late night show, and no one was able to sleep. We were up earlier than we had wanted to be or planned and just drove until we found some place open for breakfast. It didn't look like the kind of place that would have hot tea, but I asked anyway. Not only did they have hot tea, I was bombarded with a list of the available options. My not fully awake zombie brain said, "black tea," and was told yet another list of options. This is what I apparently chose, because next thing I knew, I was presented with a mug, a lidded beaker thing of boiling water, and packaged tea bag. It was good. The flavor wasn't too strong. It was just black tea. It soothed my frazzled soul. (The eggs and hash browns were perfect, too.)
