December 17 - Cream of Earl Grey

David's Tea - Cream of Earl Grey

Suggested serving

Amount: 1.5 tsp
Time:   3 - 5 min
Temperature: 98° C

Notes: Medium caffeine.

Ingredients: Black tea, cornflowers. With natural vanilla and bergamot flavouring.

Review: I had been anxious to try this tea for months now after a friend recommended it. The aroma is distinctly Early Grey but the taste is much smoother. The vanilla flavour counters the usual bitterness of the black tea, which allows for a nice light flavour. The only thing I question is the creaminess of it, which seems rather lacking.

Rating: 8/10

Mood music while sipping away: Bob Dylan – Must be Santa.
