drank Blossom Earl Grey by Twinings
3240 tasting notes

I had a hankering for black tea and could not decide what I wanted. I am trying so hard to SIPDOWN some teas that are older or have very little left, and I realized that making a whole pot would send this expired box well on its way. I drank one cup and decided the fresh, fruity aroma was crying out to be tried iced and sweetened. Now I wish I had some more hot to refill my cup.

The base is pretty smooth as long as it doesn’t sit too long and cool on you, the bergamot is present but not overpowering, there is a lovely orange blossom scent, and I swear I think there is a tiny little hint of jasmine.

For a bagged tea, this performs.

You know, this was pretty much my first tea. I’ve been drinking it as long as I can remember. As a child I always had it with honey and milk. And I still like this tea. It’s like a comfy blankie.

Wow! For some reason I thought this must be a relatively new blend! I guess I just never saw it in our local stores before and still have to buy it in a bigger city.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fourteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
