Art of Tea Sample 12/24
Wow..the Earl is very strong in this one. This is a highly scented bergamot tea. I probably shouldn’t have had this right after the Jasmine, but it was to be steeped at the same temperature, so I brewed them up at the same time.
As it cools I can taste more of the sweet green tea base, and less of the hit you in the face bergamot. I’m excited to be moving on to the dessert blends this afternoon. If the chocolate in chocolate monkey is as strong as the bergamot in this Earl, I will be in heaven!
This is a decent green Earl Grey. The green tea base is quite astringent though. The green tea lends a fresh flavor that is a nice change from the usual Earl Grey. The bergamot is strong but does not overwhelm the green tea.

Oh, and PS: Thank you Jaime for including this in my Secret Santa box!
You’re in for a treat!!! I think you’re gonna love the chocolate monkey!
They’ve got to wait before I try them. My kettle is now rusted inside:-(. Hubby threw it away. I have no other way to heat tea until I pick something up. Drats.
AUGH!!!!! He threw it away when you had nothing to already replace it?! Tell him the Breville can’t rust and will last longer.
Yes threw it away. But he did make it up to me today and bought me an electric kettle. We discussed the Breville but may have to wait until tax time. Unless he’s just keeping hush about getting one for my birthday in early november.
