I have this tea at work when I need something with a kick. Not my favorite, but it gets me started with its boldness. One thing: the aroma of the teabag after being liberated from the sealed pouch is odd. It’s not very natural smelling (kinda “chemically”). Anybody else notice that?
I think there are better, more natural tasting /smelling Earl Greys available & typically prefer them.
I’m a husband, father, and musician. I love cinema, and non-fiction books on science.
I’m new to tea, except for what is available at local food stores. I like Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Jasmine Green, and Genmaicha. I’m hoping to grow this list of faves…
I can’t stand camomile. Too flowery, perfumey. Yuck. Even the smell puts me off….
At the moment, I prefer natural teas; nothing too fruity, spicy, or sweet. I never add milk or sugar, but am not opposed to the occasional thin slice of lemon, or drop of honey, in hot black/green tea. As my palate matures, perhaps I will expand in my acceptance of infused fruit/spice blends.
I love many diff iced teas, again with lemon or something tart, but not sugary.
Am looking forward to experimenting with loose teas, since my only experience to date is with tea bags.
Help me find the perfect ‘hug in a mug’
