From Silkenty

Ceylon Black Tea & Oil of Bergamot Orange

Premium Ceylon tea, blended with pure oil of Bergamot orange. A classic recipe, redis- covered, the way it was when Earl Grey originally popularized it amongst British royalty over a century & half ago.

Tasting Notes
Fine, soft, discrete, very particular with a final touch of acidity… Recommendable for the strong-typed tea lovers..

Wow I love this!! The black teas from Silkenty seem to have a unique nectarous fragrance. This tea smelled a bit like chocolate (and it’s the kind of chocolate with tiny bits of rose petals!) to me. When brewed the soft aroma was dreamy. Delicate bergamot flavour, hint of chocolate flavour, and fruity Ceylon tea base – what’s not to love? ;)

I received this one from my sister-in-law, and… I opened it so badly that I cut through sachet inside.

So, I took the tea and prepared it grandpa instead of western style. First of all, it is very citrusy and bergamot in aroma, really full nose of earl grey notes which sounds pretty good.

When brewed, it took quite long to brew, I think around 4 minutes when it got nice EG notes in taste. Tea is quite chopped, but few long leaves were there too. I think the grade was Orange Pekoe, maybe Broken OP.

And – yep, it was quite delicious; very comforting citrusy notes, with tannic notes of tea. Later on, it turned out quite bitter, especially bottom of the cup. But yeah, it was brewed for long time, so it is not actually surprising. Too bad that they did not used any peels in tea, it was probably scented with oils which is kinda sad when they used pyramid sachet.
