Tea Pick of the Week...Twinings Earl Grey Tea

This week I have been drinking...Twinings of London Classics 
Earl Grey Tea

This is a black tea perfectly balanced with the distinctive flavour of bergamot, a citrus fruit.

Bergamont is found in citrus trees in Italy. The flavor is floral and rich, with a faintly bitter astringent flavor.
Bergamot is believed to be uplifting and energizing.  Essential oil derived from the peel of the Bergamot peel helps to reduce stress, energizes and treat depression.

I have been drinking this tea as my first cup of tea in the mornings. I do add a touch of honey to this tea. All of the combination of fragrances and flavors are not overwhelming. I find the tea to be a relaxing drink. It calms your nerves, so to say. This is a darker brewed tea. But not a heavy tasting or "weighted down" tea. The flavors are not bitter, nor does it leave a bitter aftertaste in your mouth.
I enjoy drinking this tea and I will purchase it again. But first there are many more teas to try!

Let me know in the comments below what favorite tea of yours that I should try next.

Everyone, thank you for reading 
Have a blessed day!
