Victoriaanse Earl Grey - Sample

The lavender is subtle enough that it doesn't overpower the bergamot, which is exactly what I wanted from a floral black tea. Steeped for three minutes and it came out smooth with just the right kick to get me through the afternoon slump.

I'd been skeptical of floral teas, but that lavender and bergamot combo is genuinely balanced—I can taste the bold black tea base holding it all together. The sample size is perfect for testing it before committing to a full tin.

The lavender really mellows out the bergamot in a way I didn't expect—it's floral but still has that classic Earl Grey kick. I've already re-steeped the leaves twice and the flavor holds up nicely.
