Review: California Tea House Vanilla Creme Earl Grey

"A spectacular blend of vanilla and cream, this is a dessert by itself. The texture is smooth and the effect is wonderful."
|
The aroma from the dry leaves is primarily vanilla, not the stark orange that is regularly emitted from grey tea. This wonderful truth is repeated after brewing, which sets the mood for something unique. It is the initial impression that this is a vanilla creme tea foremost and a grey tea only afterward.Again, this wonderful truth holds through the tasting. A smooth and creamy flavor splashes about, closer to a fine white chocolate than a tea. A texture of velvet supports the creme trend and a brief euphoria washes in midway through the second cup. It is a fresh and successful diversion from the mainstream and it is very, very welcome. The element that is most important here - and most difficult to describe - is that place where texture meets flavor and aroma, combining to create an experience. The experience for this blend is master class.
As a fairly neutral consumer of greys, I generally expect a fair tea from them and nothing more. This creamy delicacy is definitely worth acquiring.
