Monk Pear & Bergamot

I'd had the Earl Grey Special and wanted a change, this was recommended and it is outstanding! The pear is a superb addition, and i can see this much not lasting a long time, this is an easy drinking very enjoyable any time tea

I currently have a sample and I am considering buying a pack. The tea initially has a strong “pear”** scent with a slightly smokey undertone. The tea taste itself is a delicate and smooth, slightly sweet, well-rounded mouthful. You definitely do not taste the pear – or get a mouthful of that pear smell. The bergamot is not overly strong, but clearly downplays the sweetness of the pear. I would describe it as weak-medium rather than strong, and I did not find any bitter tannins when left to steep. **(I agree with the other reviewer that the pear scent does smell slightly artificial).

A nice tea, but the pear flavour is just a touch artificial tasting. The Blood Orange black tea has the same kind of almost-sweet taste to it, without the aftertaste.

I've only ordered a sample bag to just give it a try. I love bergamot notes in my tea and consider pear my favorite fruit, so this is a perfect tea combination for me. Quiet strong brew, but amazingly tasty! I can feel all the flavors. Absolutely love it! Next time I'll order a bag full of this deliciousness. Recommend it as a breakfast kind of tea due to quite a strong character.
