mj drank Cream of Earl Grey (Organic) by DAVIDsTEA

268 tasting notes

I am not a fan of bergamot but I actually like this well enough. Crazy. Vanilla is a magical substance! Granted, I did add milk and sugar because I was apprehensive about the blerg, but those two combined with the vanilla tamed the flavor beast that is bergamot so that it floated in the background and was largely inoffensive. If you like regular earl grey, this tea would probably be amazing. Thanks, Virginia, for talking me into trying this one! Who knew I could enjoy a tea with bergamot in it?

Flavors: Bergamot, Vanilla

Preparation

205 °F / 96 °C 5 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
