drank Earl Grey by Tea Forte
318 tasting notes

My dad is a dentist, and like this time of year for many years past I’ve been whisked away for a Florida Dental Association convention at the beautiful fantasy world known as the Ritz Carlton Naples for a week long escape from reality! It’s a beautiful hotel, but I’m smacking myself for not bringing any tea.

Tea Forte is what’s available for hot tea here, if only the teas were as good as their adorable packaging… This is an okay Earl Grey, but not one I would actively seek out. Malty, slightly floral, and citrusy, but it doesn’t really taste like real bergamot.

Flavors: Citrus, Floral, Malt

An okay tea is better than a bad tea.

Yes! I’m very grateful for the ok tea, I would probably wither away if they had no tea or just something really bad.

I don’t drink much black tea, but will turn to Earl Grey if I’m at some function. I find it helps me digest those Continental breakfasts! I see you’re from Clearwater. i’ve spent some time in Tampa where my uncle lived. I envy your proximity to nice beaches!

Clearwater does have great beaches! I don’t know if you’ve been there, but I frequent Honeymoon island beach/state park.

It was so long ago. I may have picnic-ed there.

Bio

Tea addict since around 2011.

My favorites are pu’erhs, blacks/reds, and roasted oolongs, but I have a growing interest in good whites, and sometimes enjoy greens.

Currently trying to get an education, working a part time job, expand my ceramics/pottery skills, and trying to make the best of existential crisis.

Other than tea I love the outdoors, ceramics, guitar, and diy/building things.

I started a tea blog in February 2018, though admittedly I haven’t updated it much lately.

When I give a tea a numerical rating it’s simply meant to reflect a balance of how well I enjoyed the tea and how it compares to others of the same style. I don’t follow any universal rating criteria, and my ratings are mainly meant for my own use, to remember what I though of a tea and if I want to repurchase.
