I had this as a tea to go when I stopped in at dT this afternoon. I should also report that I looked at the glass nordic mug, and the glass was disappointingly thin. Similar to the glass used for the perfect glass mug (which I own), I’m scared of breaking it because it just feels so thin and delicate.
Anyway, this tea. All I can say is that what i tasted was a generic earl grey and a muddled fruit pudddle where all the flavours jumbled into one rather unremarkable mess. I have a feeling that it could have been better, but I don’t think I’ll be revisitting it anytime soon. Not with teas like the tea merchant’s french earl grey and Paris in my collection.

I agree! I had it a long time ago, it was the very first cup to go I had from them. I was not familiar with their teas at that point and the chick suggested it so I thought ok. It was too much Earl and not enough of his garden in my opinion.
Sorry about this one. :( Did you pick up anything else?
Yeah, his garden was remarkably lacking. And the earl was all befuddled and not even very early. And Courtney, I got myself a sample package of alpine punch. I didn’t like it when I had it tonight, but it was great as a latte. But I’ve never made a latte at home so we’ll see LOL.
Sorry you didn’t feel this one…
i’ve had my glass perfect mug for almost 3 years now and you,re right it does seem fragile and thin, but I tell you that borosilicate glass is pretty resistant, I’m not super careful with it, I even put it in the dishwasher, it never broke (so far…maybe I was just lucky?) I bought a ceramic nordic mug a few weeks ago and I really like it.
Oh, well that gives me hope! I might bust out my glass perfect mug after work today, then.
