Hey, I never wrote about this when I got my latest lot of flavoured teas and made a return to the site. I must have forgotten. I’ve had it several times since then, I believe, and whenever I see the tin in the cupboard Kate Bush starts singing in my head.
This is a citrus-y one. Although it does contain bergamot oil, I would say there’s not really enough of it for this to qualify as a member of the EG family. It also has lemon, lime and orange blossom, and maaaaaybe a bit of orange flavouring as well? I’m not sure.
The result is sweet and citrus-y, with a creamy sort of texture to it. I feel like lime is the most dominant flavour here. I suspect the bergamot oil is actually working to temper the tartness of the lemon and lime. This is also why I think there might be some orange flavouring added to it apart from just the blossoms. It feels too sweet for there not to be anything to balance it out.
I’m quite happy with this one. It’s delicious as a post-lunch tea.
I also rather enjoy Kate Bush on occassion, but I could live without the earworm. :)

Ah, Kate! Breathing is a favorite of mine. So many good ones, though.
See now you made me go and listen to that song. :)
Did you know it already? That and Wuthering Heights and…and…
I JUST listened to a Kate Bush song minutes ago. I love them all. All of them.
Oh yes, I know that song. I have a weird weakness for The Dreaming as well. That whole album, to be honest, but particularly the title track.
Its so nice to run into Kate fans! They are rare where I live.
I don’t think I’m familiar with a sufficient quantity of her work to really call myself a fan. It’s a bit like Tori Amos. Something that I get reminded exists every now and then and then pull it out to listen to for a bit.
I’m 1,000% also a Tori fan.
I suspect there’s generally a lot of overlap with those two. :)
