I still have this in my bag from yesterday, and I’m glad to have another cup. I dropped the temperature by just a bit and the bitterness is completely gone. It’s a solid cup. I picked up on some citrus in the beginning, but now it’s mostly good black tea I’m tasting. I’m still getting some of that fruit flavor (maybe stone fruits?) but I don’t know if that’s part of the flavoring or the tea itself.

Side note: Does anyone do a bullet journal? I’m thinking of transitioning my planner into one. I’m not so artsy (some of them are beautiful), but they seem really detailed and organized with endless possibilities and great benefits.

Flavors: Citrus, Fruity, Stonefruit

Holy crap this cup was good. I’m so tempted to give this a ninety now. Have a small tea ball full and in a 12 ounce cup, I got really strong cocoa and chocolate notes from an Earl Grey. FROM AN EARL GREY! Maybe the ball had leftover flavors from other black teas I drink, but I could still taste the bergamot WITH chocolate notes. And the notes began after 30 seconds and continued as it steeped each time as I grandpa styled it. WTF?!
