additional notes: Tiffany sent me TWO cubes of this one, so I decided to have a bit today of the one that Mastress Alita sent me, so I can eventually reuse that resealable pouch (since T2 uses unsealable packaging.) It was very grapefruit today and very delicious! I just noticed a grapefruit tea is one of the prompts this month, so maybe I can finish this pouch in time for that. It might be the only grapefruit tea I have. Second steep was excellent too. I’ll have to remember these parameters for the future, which is why I’m writing this note today… also raising the rating from 82. I think this would be one of my top five T2 blends (though I haven’t tried many and most others were blegh.)
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons // 24 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep
Steep #2 // 4 min after boiling // 4 min

Sometimes bergamot tastes very grapefruit to me, and other times it tastes more like a combo of lemon/lime. Seems to depend on the oil/flavoring being used, I guess. (Also, T2’s packaging is the ABSOLUTE WORST.)
But this bergamot in particular is the grapefruitiest. haha. T2’s packaging definitely wins the Worst award when you have to immediately replace it. Luckily what Tiffany sent me wasn’t opened yet. :D
