A tea I was looking most forward and luckily, it delivers my expectations quite right.

It is EG, for sure. Not sure how much bergamot, rather quite generic citrusy note. I mean, I had more bergamot forward teas. But at least it wasn’t overpowering the light, but present base tea.

Sadly, other ingredient I was looking forward, isn’t much present. As Roswell Strange mentioned, it needs more juniper! It was pine-y; but somehow it just complements the citrus notes. I was expecting stronger note of it. Not sure how much berries were in my sachet, I will try to crush them next time a bit. They use cotton and thus opaque sachets, for two steepings. I will try second steep now… but I don’t expect much difference.

And not sure if jasmine flowers are in, but it was nicely floral too. Better than yesterday experience, but still I have expected more from it.

Flavors: Citrusy, Floral, Pine

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 3 min, 30 sec 10 OZ / 300 ML

That’s an unexpected combination (juniper with earl grey elements)!

It is. I saw it just twice. I need to try second brand in near future (Forsman from Finland).
