I got this sample from TeaEqualsBliss; thank you for everything! I’m a little behind in my rating. I have a very non-functioning relationship with Earl Grey. Not just this one.
I saw the instructions on the bag and at first really questioned the 5 min steep time. Looking back I’m sure this was much longer than what my cup needed. This came out as being very astringent. The fruit loopy-ness was there but I couldn’t get past that initial punch of blah. I think this could have been saved by some milk if I had not steeped it so long. I don’t normally take milk with my tea, but something here seems to need it.
