Backlog.
Another sample from the Caffeine-Free/Decaf Traveling Tea Box. This was my very first Earl Grey, and probably my last! The bergamot just reminds me too much of the smell of natural cleaning products… I couldn’t get past it. Also I’m realizing I just don’t care for black tea at all.

Preparation
195 °F / 90 °C 4 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 8 OZ / 236 ML
Arshness

Let me say that I am a connosuier of Earl Grey teas and this is the worst one I’ve ever tasted. Please, do yourself a favor and try Earl Grey Bravo from Adagio before you give up on it. This one tasted chemical and gross. Adagio’s Earl Grey Bravo is delicious to me. I would be happy to send you a $5 gift certificate if you haven’t ordered from them before.

I spend an obscene amount of time reading and researching topics I’m interested in, and I have a tendency to lurk much more than I comment, but I’m thrilled to be a part of the Steepster community! As for teas, I don’t handle caffeine well so it’s herbals/tisanes or decaf for me. Also, I can’t seem to develop an appreciation for black tea, green tea, chai, or spiced teas. And I can’t stand anything that tastes like licorice. (wow… picky much?!)
