What a strange earl grey! I was expecting floral, maybe with some cream flavors, but this is more like an orange-and-cream flavored black. The orange peel and vanilla/cream flavors completely take over and I can’t taste the lavender at all. It’s not bad but doesn’t live up to its name at all.
This is You :-D

Bio
Elizabeth, college student, anthropology major, bio and history minor. I love to travel and try new foods (and teas!). I also enjoy music, books, video games as often as I can get my hands on them.
I loved tea as a kid, didn’t drink it for about ten years, and then rediscovered it a couple of years ago. Tea sometimes helps me feel better when chronic illness is making things hard. It’s also fun to experiment with!
I’m still pretty new to the types and brands of tea out there, but I’m interested in trying some of everything. My favorites are earl greys, yunnans, medium-bodied oolongs, Japanese greens, fruit, vanilla, and floral flavors (especially jasmine and rose). My least favorites are teas that are overly smoked, bitter, or contain strong hibiscus or orange peel.

I had no idea this was going to be an Earl Grey creme when I bought it, either.
