eteaket’s Royal Earl Grey is ‘highly recommended’ by The Tea Taster

Friday, August 6th, 2010

We’re chuffed that eteaket’s Royal Earl Grey has received a rave review by The Tea Taster.

“Eteaket looks like the kind of tea boutique that makes it an essential place to visit in Edinburgh (in fact, I might visit one of my favourite cities just to have afternoon tea here…) What pleased me is that they have a cracking website which sells all of their amazing teas, as well as some seriously stylish accessories.

The taste [of Royal Earl Grey] is heavenly- the sharp bergamot taste is delicately balanced by the lower notes of malty, smoky and refreshing tea. I had this tea before my breakfast and it really was a fantastic morning brew. I highly recommend it to those people who like their EG ‘just right’, it’s a regal, yet  cheerful blend that I will come back to again and again.”
