Earl Grey Cheesecake from 52teas
45

Hm. I think I may have made this too strong.

I was so excited to try the Earl Grey Cheesecake. It’s the tea that convinced me to place my first 52 Teas order.

I thought I liked lots of emphasis on bergamot in Earl Greys. But, either I’m wrong or did something questionable with this. It came out pretty bitter and the bergamot was harsh. I didn’t even finish it!

I think I might need to completely disregard the suggested paramaters and play around with it. I will leave the rating till next time.

The first time I brewed this, I found it to be a bit too harsh for my liking too. This one I recommend a steep time of not longer than 3 minutes.

Oh, good. There’s still hope. Perhaps I’ll give it another try tonight.
