In my experience all bagged Earl Greys are a little stingy with the bergamot, but it does become a little disgusting when there is too much of it so maybe they are erring on the side of caution. You should try a loose leaf from a local tea shop (sorry to be that tea guy), it'll probably even be cheaper.
Yeah I think this is just the way to go, eventually with both tea and coffee if you are looking for very specific stuff you gotta move into loose leaf and whole bean stuff, it's just how the business model works, the pre bagged stuff has to appeal to the largest audience of consumers possible.
I wish that didn't make so much sense but alas if i must bag it myself then so be it! I wonder if a spray bottle of bergamot oil and a cheapo go-to like red rose is my actual destiny 🤔
Growing a bergamot tree just so you can have fresh bergamot zest lol
Looking into it
I don't really drink earl grey (earl? sounds like some monarchist bullshit ), but my partner does - I picked up this bagged Ahmad Tea earl grey from a Indo/Pakistani grocery store and she likes it enough to keep on hand at work.
Nice, noted and possibly goated, i'll let ya know if i find it, thanks!
If you're already down the path of hot drink snobbery why not get a nice teapot, a sieve, and maybe a cute cup? The ritual is a big part of the enjoyment, at least for me.
I have these things and i 100% agree😭☺️
it's so much more convenient to throw away a few teabags than it is to rinse out my kyusu though. i want to merge into the bergamatrix from the comfort of my cheapo 32oz filterless target teapot but maybe i must face the reality that this is nothing more than a pipe dream in the anti-bergamot reality of modern day
be that tea guy! that's good info, i appreciate it! maybe i'll have to hunt down the closest brick and mortar tea shop and interrogate their bergamot predilections. i will not stop until I'm a whole bergamot
if you like bergamot the adagio earl greys are fantastic but a lil pricey
my fukamushi habit has ebbed dramatically in the last year so i have a little spare scratch in the tea fund, thanks for the recommendation!
