You can still buy these on Amazon. They are compressed, so you have to shave off the tea with a knife.

The one in the picture is a "Half Brick". There also come in "Full Brick", "Hockey Puck", "Ecstacy Tablets", and "Chocolate Bar". The last two being easier to prepare.

Here's a youtube video of it being prepared just to give you an idea.

I believe block tea would taste similar to American style tea dust tea bags. I could be wrong. A strong tea brick such as this one might compensate for the usual weakness associated with tea dust.

Hmm, good question. I don't really know how to describe it to you. It has a good aroma, it isn't flowery (I strongly dislike flowery tasting tea), it's strong but not so much so (obviously this can be made stronger or lighter depending on how much tea you put in the pot). It's just a really good tasting tea blend. It always gives me that relaxed and warm feeling with just the right amount of caffeine to hit that craving. It goes really well with pita and feta cheese, too, but I'm probably safe in assuming you don't have your tea in this way. It should taste good with other food, as well.

Plus, it's relatively cheap considering the quality.

Anyone know anything about the design in the first photo? It's also on this brick on Amazon.
