As mentioned before I’m not an Earl Grey fan, but you don’t get to be a tea lover without at least at one point in your tea carreer getting yourself outside an Earl Grey of some sort. It’s so much a classic that acquaintanceship is inevitable.

I’ve met a few in my time.

A few I have actively disliked.

Many I found drinkable, but otherwise neither interesting or pleasant in any way, shape or form.

Some I liked.

A few I found surprisingly nice.

Only one have I ever loved.

And this is it.

its a good way to say it…i have yet to meet the Earl Grey variant that I’ve liked…its not that I can’t appreciate it..its just not my proverbial cup of tea…but nicely put

You probably have a stronger dislike of bergamot than me. I suspect my problem with it is not so much active dislike as it’s failure to spot the appeal. If someone, Odin forbid, were to make a celery flavoured tea, for example, I don’t believe any amount of variation on the theme could rescue it for me. :)

How about garlic flavor? It would at least have the added bonus of vampire repellant. :)

I laughed out loud at celery tea!

Angrboda

Eww! :p

QuiltGuppy

I would drink the celery tea.

Your tastes are obviously more refined than mine, QG. :)

I’m intrigued by this. I, too, have yet to really enjoy an Earl Grey.
