This is the least Bergamot EG I’ve tried. While it was heavy in the malt category, it was missing the citrus which makes an EG enjoyable.

EG without a citrus notes isn’t an EG!

I honestly don’t mind this tea without any sweeteners or creamers, just completely black. This isn’t a tea I would keep my the bag in even though this is something I am usually guilty of. Taking it out earlier I feel helps to minimize the soapy flavor that people sometimes can have with this blend and just a plain lemon, black tea blend.

Okay, I had tea bag of this.

The base was very nice, bold and malty. Even bit smoky! And that is what I like on EGs. But as this is supposed to be citrusy from bergamot – well this part is missing completely. It was rather lemon dish soap taste-aroma, weirdly sweet and overall unenjoyable.

Too bad, the base is great, but flavour is wicked.

Backlog:

The fragrance of Bergamot is lacking – I didn’t get a strong bergamot aroma when I opened the pouch and I also didn’t get a really strong bergamot scent in the brewed tea. It was a little disappointing to me because I love me some bergamot and I enjoy smelling it almost as much as I enjoy drinking a properly flavored Earl Grey tea.

Flavor-wise, the bergamot is there. It’s a good earl grey. It doesn’t taste soapy or like cologne. The black tea is brisk and smooth and not astringent.

Overall, I enjoyed this. I wish it had a stronger bergamot scent but because the flavors were there, I can’t really knock it too severely. A decent Earl Grey.
