I steeped for 3 minutes this time around. Slightly more raspberry than when brewed for 5 minutes, but the bergamot is still so very strong and overwhelming that you have to consciously try to taste the raspberry. It seems almost sacrilege to steep a black tea for less than 3 minutes, but I’ll try this one for two. Tomorrow. Noon has now come and gone, and caffeine consumption must cease.

I love blood oranges. I especially love sharing them with people who have never had them before. The comments on the appearance or on the name are priceless, but everyone loves the taste.

This tea has the distinct citrus taste of blood oranges; coupled with the cinnamon, it makes for a crisp, sweet cup that’s perfect for a fall morning.

I just wish it were fall already.

This has a strange smell to it. Taste is okay, fruity but not strongly blueberry. Only have a few bags left, and will not be buying it again.

Sticking with decaf until I’ve decided if I’m really awake for the day or not.

It’s 5:30 on a Sunday morning, and I’ve been awake for nearly 3 hours. Sleep fail. Am at parents’ place, where the house is sorta an open-air layout. Moved my electric kettle into the laundry room to make some tea. Hopefully something warm and soothing will slow my mind down and let me drift off to sleep.

This is lightly citrusy and sweet (brewed for 10 minutes). And this one cup is going way too fast…time to brew more.

Rather spicy, a good strong brew.

This is another sample from Lucy’s daughter of Angel Teas. Again, don’t know her source, so am logging under David’s brand.
