Very pleasant

It’s been a long time since I enjoyed Earl Grey tea this much. Most Earl Grey teas are made with black tea, and I have come to really dislike the taste of black tea in any form. For years I’ve stuck to Jasmine tea since I found green tea versions of that. Then a few weeks ago I found a half-used packet of tea in a holiday cottage. It was a green Earl Grey and it made an interesting change from my usual Jasmine.

Now that I’ve tracked down a source of this green Earl Grey I have started to drink it regularly. The bergamot flavour comes out very well in this tea .

Lovely fragranced tea

Probably one of my favourite tea nowadays. Unique taste and perfume herbal combinations, makes them suitable for any moment of the day.

Great mug, arrived really quickly

A lovely little teapot that fits roughly two full mugs of tea. If I had to nitpick, if you use a fruit tea with larger pieces it is sometimes harder to pour as the larger pieces block the filter pourer, but this is easilly remedied with a little patience and tilting the pot at a slightly different angle.

Great value for a wide variety of different teas. They have a great response time to any questions you may have too!

Tastes like what I always wish Mulled Wine tasted like. That is to say, absolutely delightful. Warming and cosy, even better with a smidge of honey!
