Backlog:
An excellent Earl Grey. A strong, amazingly beautiful bergamot scent (I never get tired of that scent.) The base is Ceylon and Keemun which offers a strong background of flavor without being too aggressive. It’s smooth and well-rounded. No bitterness and only slightly astringent toward the tail. What astringency there is seems to accentuate the bergamot notes in a positive way.
Bright, citrus-y bergamot. Notes of floral without tasting perfume-ish. The citrus notes linger in the aftertaste. Tangy and invigorating.
A seriously good Earl Grey. Definitely in my top five. I’m not sure which Earl Grey it would displace … nor am I sure I’d want that Earl Grey displaced so just consider the statement to say that this is really good. If you’re an Earl Grey fan, try it.
