As per usual, whenever I have Earl Grey tea, I want MORE of the Earl the next day! I chose this one because I thought it would go well with the pumpkin muffins I made for the office today. Good call :) The excellent tea base and subtle, fresh bergamot was a really nice foil for the muffins. Let me mention the tea base again – it’s SO nice. I got even more silver tips in my portion today and the taste is just bowl me over delicious!

I’m so very devastated that I have a mere sample of this, and I don’t even think I can wait til my Winter Break Visit to Harney SoHo to have more. I think I need to place another Harney order – this is definitely one of my Holy Grail Teas, and another of my HG teas, Golden Monkey, is back in stock!

EDIT – I know I am really, really tea crazy when I turn down an offer of coffee with Bailey’s Irish Cream (coworker brought it in – shhhhh! I know we are not supposed to have alcohol at work shhhhhh!) because I am so loving my Earl Grey Supreme!

Bio

I love to cook, bake, read, paint, knit, do needlework, and garden. I need my coffee, but I LOVE my tea. I work at an Art School, and attend a large public university doing post-bac work (my BA is in English). I’m interested in the liminal spaces between art and craft, the academic and the practical, the individual and community, and the old and the new. I’m currently exploring these ideas through the disciplines of education, literature, history, and psychology.

I enjoy writing tasting notes, but have decided not to numerically rate teas as of 9/14/10. For an explanation, see my looooong tasting note about Mountain Malt from the Simple Leaf.

My favorites:
Chinese black teas
A good “milk and sugar” English style black
Earl Grey (classic, and in all variations!)
Vanilla teas (classic, and in all variations!)
Jasmine, Rose, Violet and other froofy, flowery teas!
An Occasional Oolong
Flavored Rooibos
Herbal Tisanes
