Black Tea by Whittard of Chelsea
Earl Grey has become a defining flavor of Britain, distinguished by its fragrant taste. Traditionally an afternoon tea, our customers wanted a version strong enough for breakfast. So we created a fine blend of black tea with malty Assam, crisp Ceylon and mellow Kenyan. It is a vigorous blend with a beautiful, delicate bergamot taste.
Liberteas Thanks for this one!
It’s a goodie!
I really like that it has more than one black tea in it’s base. The blend is lovely. The Bergamot isn’t as intense as some others I have tried but it works well here. It’s also a tad lemony. And a bit creamy, even. I can also pick up on the floral notes Liberteas mentioned in the 2nd half of the sip!
Very nice!
What a lovely Earl Grey! Quite unlike others that I’ve tried. The base is a blend of teas, and this blend is very bold and distinguished, and the bergamot seems rather mellow as a result. But it has mellowed in a very enjoyable way, offering a sweet hint of juicy citrus notes throughout the sip, but, by the time I’ve reached mid-cup, the flavor begins to reveal some hints of floral tones. It’s a very unique bergamot, a very lovely Earl Grey.
Yay for Earl Grey!
This is a great EG! I had all sorts of tea plans for this morning and threw them all out the window because this one said “breakfast” – it’s breakfast OBVS. ;)
