Earl Grey tea
History is a very engaging subject. I would have said the very opposite when I was in school. Its a changed perspective now as I dont have to learn them rather remember the experiences which associates with them.Sitting with a cup Earl Grey tea and trying to improve my photography: trying to capture the steam…( didn’t work though) set my mind rolling…
What causes the peculiar flavor, the lasting aroma…?
Who was responsible for these flavor profiles…?
Turning to the “Google god” I read for a long while. Capturing the gist of it.
The tea is infused with the flavors form Bergamot , passing on the citrusy refreshing flavor. The history of it was intriguing…It may have been accidental with a shipment where the smell of Bergamot infused into the tea or a special flavor profile developed for Lord Grey. A lot of speculations in history too.
I am going to keep this in mind and dive a bit deeper for reading…It was an elated experience. sipping the tea… and reading about it.
