earl grey moonlight

“ Adagio's Earl Grey Moonlight tea receives praise for its complex, harmonious blend that gently modifies the traditional Earl Grey with softer undertones. Reviewers highlight the infusion of vanilla and creme, complimented by citrus notes from orange peel and a staple bergamot presence. The result is a smooth, comforting beverage that appeals even to those typically cautious of bergamot's boldness. The tea's ability to accommodate multiple steeps, with some preferring it with a touch of sweetener or cream, further adds to its versatility. Stands out aspects include its creamy texture and the capacity to transform a standard Earl Grey into a delightful, less intense experience. The blend's engaging aroma and balanced taste profile make it a cherished selection among tea enthusiasts, overcoming initial hesitations and transforming perceptions of traditional Earl Grey. ”

“ I appreciate the Earl blends for their personality. Earl Grey Moonlight is definitely smooth enough to be sipped while listening to jazz, creamy enough to be an after lunch treat, and with it's citrus presence it is reminiscent of a dream sickle. I enjoy the aroma of Bergamot as well as the taste of it. I find this blend delicious and I do multiple steeping, each cup as satisfying as the first cup. Excellent tea blend. ”

“ I like earl grey but the bergamot flavor in this tea is just too strong for me. I can’t taste any vanilla or cream. Even when I adjust the brewing time and temperature, I can barely drink it. I’ve taken to mixing this tea with other teas to tone down the flavor. Only then do I enjoy it. ”

“ This is another weekly go to for me, I love the Bergamot and I think it's well balanced with the vanilla and cream. What a lovely addition to my afternoon teas. ”

“ This is my favourite everyday afternoon tea. It's delicate tea flavour combined with a hint of orange marmalade and cream make it wonderful to drink English-style with a spot of milk or cream. ”

“ 3 min @ 212 F. I want to give this tea 3.5 stars, it's a little bit better than a three star tea. I'm not the biggest fan of Ceylon, and that's the base adagio uses for their flavored black teas. I feel it's a little bit more bitter and astringent and than keemun for an Earl grey. While I like vanilla and cream as flavoring choices, they don't balance out that bitterness, just adding a slightly cloying aroma. That being said, my second infusion was much less bitter, some of the vanilla and crème flavoring were more mild, and I enjoyed it more. And, after adding some milk and crystal rock sugar, I feel like it really brought out the nicer aspects of the vanilla and crème flavoring, without overpowering the bergamot too much! ”
