I really came to love this tea once I figured out the best steeping parameters. The orange had a bite to it – a slight bitterness, which was expected with the orange peel pieces in the blend. However, the orange flavour itself was really lovely and truly orange. The orange slightly edged out the bergamot, but the bergamot was still present. The base tea was smooth with a lower temperature and shorter steep. I would add this one to my cupboard.
Preparation

This sounds nice!
Finding the best steeping paramters is sometimes so hard and what’s worse, I do not write them down and forget them afterwards quickly :D
