CuppaGeek Advent Calendar, December 13
Hm, Lavender Earl Grey. I think I had some before, but can’t really recall. Checked my Steepster.txt and yep, it says I had. Twinings Lavender Earl Grey 8 months ago and 2 years ago I had Tazo Earl Grey where I had noticed lavender as well.
How is Nichole’s version?
I have to admit I liked it more than expected. The base black tea with bergamot reminded me a lots of Ahmad Tea Earl Grey, a quite good standard tea bag. The base was nice and then burst of lavender florals, which weren’t overpowering the base though. It was nicely floral. It was bit tingling my tongue.
I would like to try more to rate it properly, but this cup was nice in morning.
Flavors: Bergamot, Floral, Lavender
Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C
4 min, 0 sec
10 OZ / 300 ML
I have a Steepster.txt file too! Never lose tasting notes that way since I never type anything “directly into the box” and always have a back-up, and so easy to find teas using Ctrl+F on the file, as well.
Ooooo I hope I have this one!
