1 bag for 250 mL water @100C, steeped 5 minutes, drunk bare.
I got a chest of Ahmad bagged tea last night: English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Darjeeling, and this rather scientific sounding English Tea No 1. I was dubious: light with bergamot, huh?
It’s pretty good. The tea base is strong, with lots of copper notes from a Ceylon. The bergamot is very light, giving a dry mouth-feel, dry like white wine, but without any acidity. I like this much more tha I thought I would.
Ahmad just might be my favourite for bagged tea, Ahmad and Stash.

Smooth, too. The bergamot develops as the liquor cools. The tea gives a slightly fuzzy mouth-feel, too: Ceylon and maybe a pinch of Kenyan?
