Pink Earl Grey

I have to confess. I did not think I would like this tea. However, I do like it!
It is heavy on the bergamot and a bit perfume-y but that flavor quickly dissipates into a sweet, fruity, and somewhat creamy yummness!

WOW! This smells amazing!
It’s like sweet-juicy green tea with various citrus but more importantly rhubarb and cream as well as rose! YUMMO!!!

The flavor isn’t overly Earl Grey like your typical EG/Black but it has a scrumptious flavor! I’m totally LOVING the Rhubarb – it’s juicy, sweet, and creamy! The rose is a nicely-done partner. The green tea is sweet, juicy, creamy – nothing bitter or grassy! The citrus is a cross between lemon and orange. I’m totally loving the overall flavor and tastes here but if you are looking for your stereotypical EG – this is very different. Regardless – I’m totally digging this!

This is really nice. I’m not always as excited about green Earl Grey teas as I am about black Earl Grey … bergamot just seems to pair better with the black tea, in my opinion. However, it works really nicely in this blend.

It doesn’t brew up pink, though, it brews up a clear amber green color, but, that’s OK, I didn’t really expect it to be pink… It is a beautiful dry leaf though, with all the little rose buds in it.

As someone who adores Earl Grey, I found myself looking at the ingredients and wondering why anyone would put rhubarb in an Earl Grey, but it really seems to work here… it gives the cup an almost strawberry-ish taste, which may seem weird, but, it’s working for me. I taste enough of the bergamot to keep the Earl Grey lover in me happy, and the green tea is soft and buttery. A very enjoyable cup.
