I got this as a free sample with a recent Chi of Tea order, and I was curious about this one because I have not really ever had a great EG.
The scent of the dry leaves is very strong and I definitely get notes of vanilla, though the bergamot scent is very harsh.
The tea itself smells very sweet and the taste is odd. The bergamot is very overpowering, and I don’t get any of the vanilla I smelled in the leaves. I don’t really like this, overall. I don’t seem to have very good luck with flavoured oolongs, but I will try this one again to see if it is any better with different steeping parameters.
