After my initial “meh” experience, I’ve come to enjoy this tea immensely. I blend it with a straight black – in about a 1.5-to-1 ratio – add a pinch of sugar and frothed milk to make the perfect London Fog latte. It’s pretty potent so a little goes a long way. Blending it with another black tea helps balance the tea and lets the lavender, vanilla, and bergamot shine through gently without hitting me in the face. Makes for a nice dessert tea or afternoon pick me up. I don’t normally add milk to tea (that’s for coffee and matcha) but this is one tea that’s totally made for it.

I love London Fogs; that is my breakfast tea this morning! I find most EG blends are too heavy on the bergamot for my particular tastes but the milk smooths it out just right. Agree with the matcha as well, I prefer it latte-style as well.
That was the case with this tea too. I didn’t enjoy it at first because on its own, the bergamot and other flavorings are too heavy. It’s perfect once you cut with a straight black and add milk.
