Earl Grey (loose leaf) from Twinings
82

First thing you need to know is that this is one of my favorite teas and I am very biased.
I love the smell of it out of the tin and it seems to have the perfect amount of bergamot in it. You can smell the bergamot when steeping and its not the overpowering smell that many EG’s have. Too much bergamot in a tea is not a good thing to me. Its also very inexpensive and can be found almost everywhere. This is the tea I reach for when I need to unwind. I like the bagged version and use it mornings when I am in a hurry but the loose tea version is just so much better. I have tried hundreds of EG’s , but this is the tea I judge the others on. Its just a classic.

Bio

I am evolving as a tea drinker. I drank coffee until 2 years ago and my tea drinking was consigned to tea bags. I started drinking tea when I was in Hawaii for 4 months. I drank tea, exercised, ate right and followed the directions of my son who is a body builder. I lost 70 pounds. I am keeping up my good habits which include drinking tea. I am healthier, happier, and look forwards to trying different kinds of teas and seeing all that I have missed during the last 6 decades.
