Backlog:

A really interesting take on the classic Earl Grey. Thank you to TeaEqualsBliss for sending it my way!

The black tea is a brisk yet smooth tea with hints of pepper to it. The bergamot is a softer bergamot, and the additional citrus notes seem to soften the bergamot to produce more of a citrus medley than a distinct bergamot taste.

I’m totally LOVING this has Grapefruit, Orange, AND Bergamot in it! I love when a flavored EG goes the extra mile! This is citrusy-fruity and juicy and I really like it. It’s lighter on the perfumy and astringency notes of other EGs but I’m totally ok with that! The Citrus Fruit Flavors are lovely and a great pick-me-up!

Started by day with this again :)

Backlogging 3 cups from earlier today…this is DANDY!

I’m barreling thru this one way too fast. See other notes

I’m having a cup of this now – double shot! Also sending some to SIL :)
