Honestly, being a lover of lightish teas, I enjoy this tea. It’s really light! I don’t really drink any green teas, but I could totally get into this!

Just a stronger tea than I expected. Otherwise, all good.

This was just an OK tea. I got an ounce of the stuff at the Eau Claire location of Infinitea (which is f*cking awesome!)

This is, so far, the best tea I’ve drunk. It’s ALSO my first loose-leaf tea! Anyway, I nice mild cup, just right for my tastes, considering I’m not a fan of more astringent teas

I put this at the same rating as Twinings’ amazing English Breakfast tea because it tastes almost identical, just a bit smokier.

Oh, Lady Grey, I hope you don’t taste as absolutely AWFUL as your spouse, the Earl Grey from Twinings. But, without further ado…

Meh, it isn’t great, but I could drink this if forced to.

Dearest Earl Grey:
I believe you don’t have the right to be in my cupboard anymore. Your wife, Lady Grey, may stay. Maybe I understeeped or oversteeped you. But, hey, my stepfather likes you!

Notes before tasting:

Awesome, sort-of sharp smell
Got it in Black Tea Variety Pack
Other teas in pack are Irish Breakfast, English Breakfast, and Lady Grey.
Bought seperately: English Afternoon.

Tasting:

Well, without further ado…
Extremely light, with a really good citrusy aftertaste
Best without milk, but with just a pinch of milk it is OK.

drank Lipton Black Tea by Lipton

It’s an okay cuppa. Also, it was the first of two teas I drank at Sue Kolve’s Salon. I guess, it’s just basically a CUP O’ TEA. Sadly, I don’t believe it’s Chinese or British-made but for an American cup it’s good.

Preparation
Boiling 2 min, 45 sec
