I've enjoyed this tea for years. However, when I last bought some from my local Indian store I couldn't decipher the code on the box.
I was looking for a "best before" date stamp and there was none. Sadly, I had to throw the tea out because it was old. I'd buy again, but only as long as I understand how fresh it is.
The taste is wonderful but the price is a bit too high where other branded tea are available in the market for lesser price.
