Earl Grey bribery ?
Being as there is nothing much new news today . What do you think of
Earl Grey paying people to try their new flavour of tea . I read it was £10 a week or free tea for a year.
I would need a lot more than that . I remember one ABer describng it as
tasting of mushroom and smelling of old socks ,which I thought was a pretty good description .
I can never understand some hotels especially abroad seem to imagine its a treat to serve Earl Grey or China tea . They are supposed to suit the refined taste . I see there was a court case in the USA of a man who suffered bad side effects from EG but recovered after going back to a English Breakfast tea.

It's a very similar story to Coke - why buqqer around with something that folk like?
Personally, I detest EG, - an English or Scottish Breakfast Tea, courtesy of Taylors of Harrogate (prop the Wild Bros) will suffice, failing that an Orange Pekoe.....

I take my tea without milk and sugar and very weak. I like Earl Grey although it can be a bit medicinal. Love china teas. But my favourite is Darjeeling leaf tea with cassia and cardamom. First drank it in Kashmir, came back with a massive bag of the stuff and worried slightly about customs but no problem.
I think Twinings must have done a very good PR job on Earl Grey years ago because it`s always had a refined image about it. I don`t like the stuff. The only place I want to smell bergamot oil is in my suntan lotion! The new one`s bergamot and lemon. I reckon it`ll be discontinued within the year.
I like tea to smell and taste like tea - strong Kenyan for me or Assam if there`s no Kenyan left.
