TARDIS (Blend) from Custom-Adagio Teas
80

Mmmm. Dry this smells like a blueberry muffin and if you sniff a little deeper, earl grey. Brews to a really lovely red. I’d tell you what it smells like steeped but my nose is a little stuffy and whatever the scent is will not come through!

The taste is interesting. In some sips I get a ton of early grey, others the blackberry (that comes over more as a blueberry) dominates. The vanilla is more of an aftertaste on the back of my tongue. I added a bit of stevia to sweeten it up a tad. Definitely going to try this in latte form!

I love how they have the “We fit 4oz into the pouch instead of 3 because it’s bigger on the inside.”

No season of Doctor Who is complete without someone running in and out of the TARDIS with a surprised look on their face :D

I loved that too! It seems some of Adagio’s employee are BBC fans. Have you seen the blends homepage lately?

Aw, I was going to buy this, but I just noticed it’s an earl grey. For some reason, Adagio’s seem too strong on the bergamot for me. How would you say it was?

It wasn’t too bad, but I haven’t had a ton of earl greys though. I would say it’s a dominating flavor. I can send you some though, enough for a cup maybe in case you want to try it but if you don’t like it, no biggie!

I would love to! I’m always scared to buy these blends since you have to buy so much at once. I have the Reichenbach Recovery blend from them if you;re interested in that
