Earl Grey Supreme TE14 from Upton Tea Imports

Auggy drank Earl Grey Supreme TE14 by Upton Tea Imports

Trying this one straight this time since I had it doctored before. Oddly enough, the bergamot doesn’t seem as noticeable now. It’s more of a faint juicy-like sweetness with a touch of perfumed bergamot at the tail end of the sip and hanging around post-swallow. But I still like this one – it’s smooth with no real astringency and a nice, non-fake flair of flavor. It doesn’t scream “I’M EARL GREY!” but rather states it in a dignified tone and in possibly a slightly snooty British accent.

I’ve decided to brave the slowness that is Steepster because I miss seeing all the good teas folks on here discover! Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.

1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
