Made this one again this morning. This time I added two smallish pieces of brown rock sugar. I am finding the black base still strong. Almost malty. Reminding me of an assam. There is still an orange rind, peppery, spicey taste but it is blunted by a more citrus flavour. The rock sugar has seem to bring out a much more grapefruit flavour vs the citrus rind flavour. This one is very much reminding me of a citrus Earl Grey but there is no bergamot. Its making a great breakfast tea. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! Today I give thanks for awesome family, great friends, and of course delicious tea!
