I love my earl grey tea early in the morning. It brings me joy and wakes me up from slumber. Every time I inhale its strong citrus scent I feel that nothing is impossible this day for me. It’s my go to caffeine.
*Russian Earl Grey Tea*
A light smoky blend with a hint of citrus and strong lemongrass scent.
Verdict:
I suppose this is an idea taken from ancient caravan-transported teas with the smoky flavor but I am rather put off by the slight oiliness scent that lemongrass is well known for. Not really my cuppa EGT.
*Twinning Earl Grey Tea*
They use to be so fragrant, a bouquet that is full body and strong. But this new batch that I bought is disappointing. It could be that they are on the shelves too long and also because I bought them on discount. Anyway with some variation I added ½ teaspoon of lavender to it to give it more of a kick. Beautiful.
Verdict:
Good cheap tea to play with and modify with different blend of herbs and spices.
*French Earl Grey Tea*
Light-girly-toss-of-nose kinda citrusy. Its very delicate and remember not to use too hot of a water as it will drown out the light fragrance in the tea. It makes me feel like a porcelain doll that can’t take too rough handling or I will be in need of a swoon on the chaise.
Verdict:
Good for girly Sunday Brunch but a bit too delicate for a wake me up.
*TWG American Earl Grey Tea*
The salesman assured me that it is the strongest flavor earl grey around TWG. I love the scent of it slightly tipping towards the strong yet gentle manner it produce. Just the right mix of citrus top note for scent and evolve to the taste of vanilla undertone.
Verdict:
Love it. Good for those morning when one would need a man to cuddle.(Strong vanilla base could be the very reason)
