Made a massive iced pitcher of this today for everyone in the lab to sip on throughout the morning – sometimes a giant jug of something communal is exactly what you need. I mostly chose this because I want to work through some of my stash of work teas, and I have a lot of this that a coworker generously gifted me…
It wasn’t bad iced – though I think it would be better hot. Very bold and intense flavour; more of that brisk and tannic black tea note, with a crisp/clean finishing unadulterated bergamot. I’d call it a very “classically flavoured” Earl Grey, though I appreciate that as intense as the bergamot felt the black tea base seemed to be stronger still. Very much as “wake up and get you going for the day” type of EG…
