I have a tea bag from Izzy – thank you!
But I am pretty sure it is even available here, in the Czech Republic. At least I have seen few boxes from London Tea Company. I think it was in railway station in my University city.
Unfortunately, I have to agree with Izzy’s rating. It is medicore Earl Grey blend (if even, because not sure about bergamot in). The base is quite well – could be better though and citrus notes are bit bland and boring. The tea was cloudy and very dark brown colour which was not very appealing too. Honestly I am not sure if it is bergamot flavoured, rather just lemon peels. And… it was bit bitter and biting, not very tasty.
Little extra points for being fairtrade, but I guess it is rather just a marketing. It was cheap tea I think. And flavourings of unknown origin and not described which flavours? Sad. Another extra point for cute bag. But that’s all.
Below average EG tea.
Flavors: Biting, Bitter, Lemon Zest

Hm, it seems I only sent you bad tasting tea! The next envelope I send will hopefully have something a bit better inside :) I almost have enough wrappers to send it.
Don’t worry Izzy. Maybe I am too affected by loose leaf I had recently and this one was just boring. Maybe I have just expected more, because majority of other reviews were positive. Maybe I had better EGs than this one.
At least I know I can avoid this one to get better. I will send something to you as well :)
