106 Tasting Notes
I have it mixed with English Evening today. It steeped so quickly that I pulled it out as soon as I was done pouring. It steeped to a lovely dark amber with just a bite of bitterness. The jasmine and bergamot give it the nice smoothness I love so much. I am not noticing a major differance with the English Evening in it. The leaves were not as broken so I am guessing they needed a longer steep time to add to the taste.
Preparation
The sweetness is overwhelming even without sugar. I like the sugar because it masks the bitter aftertaste and keeps that sweet taste until the next sip. When the pot was brought in the beautiful summer day came back again. This tea is calming for me and I will buy it again.
Preparation
I am still not fond of most tea bags. I have had this one in loose leaf and bags and it is excelent both ways. The apricot scent is so strong it wisks me away to my childhood running around in the country on a beautiful summer day.
