4 Tasting Notes

Peppermint from Twinings
81

I love this Peppermint tea, it is so fresh and thirst quenching!

It is one of the few teas that I can drink both hot and cold. So I like to drink it when it’s too warm and when it’s too cold.

Considering it’s a teabag, I really do love this herbal tea.

Posh Earl Grey from LuLin Teas
77

This is the Earl Grey for me. I brewed this tea with a friend (who claimed to not be an Earl Grey fan) a couple of days ago. We used 3g of tea for a “normal” sized teapot and I have to say it really was quite delicious.
Fuity and floral but not too strong or overwhelming which really is something I look for in my Earl Grey and it can be hard to find.
Even my non earl grey drinking friend enjoyed her brew which speaks volumnes to me!

Organic Earl Grey from Canton Tea Co
54

I tried this tea at a friend house and I have to say it was much to strong for me. I like my Earl Grey to be fragrant but subtle and not to leave my mouth to dry but unfortunately this one did and I was overwhelmed with strong floral notes that I found it difficult to taste the tea itself.
Could it have been how my friend prepared the tea? Maybe so if i was to brew again I would use less – she brewed it for me in a standard “tea for one” using approx 4grams of tea.

Lady Grey from Twinings
67

For tea bagged tea I enjoy this one. It is lighter and more refreshing than Earl Grey. More citrusy than floral I have drunk it with and without lemon and both times found it to be pleasant. I am not sure that adding milk would be advisable.
