Dammann Frères Advent Calendar 2022 – Day 14

Ooh, I love this one!

The bergamot is gentle, the base is soft and smooth, and the lime is zesty and bright. Such a lovely citrusy black tea, to me the finger lime tastes like a combination of lemon and lime. I owned a tin of this at once point, and I may need to reorder some next time… My one nitpick would be, I think the bergamot could stand to be just a little bit stronger, but I’m also perfectly happy with it as-is. :)

Ooo, I don’t think I’ve ever had bergamot and lime together! That sounds delicious.

Definitely recommend it! The bergamot is quite mellow though, it’s mostly lime. :P
