From Kusmi Tea

BERGAMOT, BERRY AND CARAMEL FLAVORED BLACK TEA

A bergamot black tea with red fruits and caramel paying tribute to the treasures of Saint Petersburg.

As you may have noticed, at Kusmi we love telling you the stories behind our teas. Our St.Petersburg blend was created in 2003 as part of the 300th anniversary of the eponymous city and birthplace of Kusmi Tea. Enjoying this tea, with its hint of indulgence, is just like exploring the magical streets of Saint Petersburg!

The experience begins in the ultimate comfort of a black tea and bergamot base. A whirlwind of bridges, canals, and rivers rushes us irrepressibly forward while our St.Petersburg blend brews in its mug, with the roaring waters of the Neva River running down into the Baltic Sea.

No one can resist the gentle vanilla notes and voluptuous hints of red fruits and caramel, whose golden-brown tones hark back to St. Isaac’s Cathedral. The full extravagance and majesty of this enchanting city is reflected in this revisited Earl Grey!

So, say da to this organic St.Petersburg blend, which is sure to delight even the most imperial palate!

Organic tea available loose because it’s good for the planet, and in tea bags for when you’re on the go.

Ingredients: Black tea* (95%), natural berry flavor (3%), bergamot essential oil, natural vanilla flavor, natural caramel flavor *Organically grown ingredient

A couple of friends from NYC came down to visit and brought the Kusmi Russian Samplers down with them, along with DTs Mint Chocolate.

This one definitely tastes like a caramel black tea, mildly fruity (berries) and just a tad of floral taste.

I did not expect to like this one. For one — caramel? In tea? Come on now. But you know what? It totally works. This is a wonderful blend. There is a slight hint of fruit (which usually I don’t care for) and it completely works with the flavors. I was so pleasantly surprised! Resteeping made it lose it’s flavor, understandably. This is another winner from my Kusmi Essentials box! I recommend picking one of those up, fellow tea drinkers. I’m a new Kusmi convert.

A very distinctive Kusmi tea. It tastes a little like candy shop, but not in a nasty synthetic way! Sweet and fruity, but full-flavoured. Not an everyday tea, but a very good one.

Nice bright fruit flavor mellowed by sweet caramel. Reminds me of the Tower of London blend by Harney and Sons.
