Palais Des Thes Advent Calendar Day 10:
The sachet says to use 170F water but my tea kettle only has a 175F setting which is what I went with to brew this cup.
I prefer the Black tea version of this over the green tea one. The green tea doesn’t come through nearly as much as the one in the (Blue Of London version). I drank this one while doing some other stuff but the bergamot is the primary flavor I’m getting. I wouldn’t purchase this but it’s still not a bad cup of tea. Though I think there are probably better Green Earl Grey Tea’s out there.
Update* This resteeped very well I resteeped it using 185F water for 5 minutes 30 seconds

Flavors: Bergamot, Grass

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 3 min, 0 sec 8 OZ / 236 ML

Totally agree with you, this tasted a bit like bergamot water to me. The black version was much better!

I got a bit of the green tea flavor but would not be able to identify it as a Chinese green. Still enjoyed the cup though!

It did remind me that I still have an oolong Earl Grey from Lupicia that I need to try!

I drink tea for many reasons: For pleasure, health benefits, mindfulness, to help with anxiety, hydration because I have always struggled with drinking plain water.
My rating system is kind of a mess and I keep telling myself I’ll fix it sometime.

0-23 Rating Means I couldn’t finish the cup
50- Undecided on a rating or don’t remember enough about it to rate the tea.
90-100 Absolutely Love and would always want to keep in my cupboard
