Got this as a gift from a friend a while ago, and keep forgetting to drink it…which is a shame because it’s delicious! Very berry forward, I do prefer it sweetened quite heavily, as it can be watery otherwise.
Flavors: Berry, Black Currant
Preparation
Like most breakfast blends this is very enjoyable but probably not destined to be my favorite tea ever. It is, however, a tea that I could very easily see myself drinking every morning and being perfectly happy with life. I’ll be enjoying this tea quite a bit through the winter months this year. I’m so glad I picked it up when I was in Aberdeen.
This is just a delicious tea! I wish I didn’t have to go halfway around the world to get more. I bought a modest amount of this tea on a whim when I went in for a simple breakfast blend while visiting Scotland on holiday and mentioned that I already had about 10 kinds of Earl Grey, my favorite blend. The seller asked if I’d tried a Blue Lady yet and I said no…. and that’s all she wrote – I’m in love! Anyone who I know that travels to Aberdeen will be asked to bring me back more of this tea! (At least it’s light for the luggage…)
It’s slightly more floral than an average Earl Grey, with some lovely light notes that really opens up the flavor. At the same time, you can instantly recognize it’s an Earl Grey.
