I thought I’d add this tea, both to Steepster and to my Tealog, as it is one we drink a lot at home. Arguably my Mum’s favourite tea, she tends to get the tin out whenever she wants a treat.

Tonight was such a night, after I got invited to interview at Newcastle :D!

And, to be fair, it is a really nice tea! The Earl Grey base is really good (a classic Earl Grey – bergamot, black tea, a slight creaminess) and works really well combined with the Lavender. The latter never becomes overpowering, or at least not at the amounts of the tea we use (~1 tsp per 250-300 ml or so).

A classic! We always have some at home, and I have no doubt we will for as long as Harvey Nichols sell it :P

Another tea that was gifted to me.
To be perfectly honest I found the Rose to be cloying and far too strong.
However, after carefully removing the dried rose petals, I do like it. Has a malty Black Tea flavour, overlaid with the floral and perfumey Rose essence. Not bad, but not a favourite.
I will probably be saving this for guests who like floral flavours in their tea.
