Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas

 

Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas is one of those teas that I have been searching for and didn’t even know it!  This eye-opening Earl Grey is much more than that – Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas – is the 2015 1st Place Winner of the North American Tea Championship – and I can see why!  It’s everything you want in an Earl Grey and more!

Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas provides your stereotypical Earl Grey flavor at first sip but then morphs into a bit more floral and ends on a smoother note than most.  Something that I noticed in the aroma but not-so-much in the taste was a speck of sweetness.  This intrigued me.  I appreciate that they not only used sunflower blossoms – but mallow blossoms, too!  They were both a lovely addition.

Eventho Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas is the first of their teas that I am reviewing here – I have tried their Walnut Green Tea, too, (and will be reviewing that soon) and have REALLY enjoyed both offers already!  I’ve already had 2 glowingly-positive tea experiences with this company and I can’t wait to jump in to their other offerings!  I know that their other teas have also received awards but after tasting 2 of them I think they need to get a bigger shelf for all of their awards they will start collecting!  Earl Grey Manhattan Tea from Aromatica Fine Teas was FABULOUS!  My morning my start the RIGHT WAY now!
