i am want to become bergamot, imbiber of lumpy green orange

Somehow i never tried earl gray until a couple weeks ago. It tastes like a new color and I’m obsessed. Stash double bergamot isn’t enough, it’s barely different than bigelow (but it’s the best I’ve found). I want more. I’m a perv for berg.

I want a bergamot tea bag that treats the tea leaves as an afterthought and i haven’t found it. I’ve tried stash, bigelow, walmart, harney and sons, private selection, twinings, and one other british sounding one that I’m forgetting atm. Stash double and bigelow are the best by far but i want like at least quadruple the bergamot flavor. Do i need to buy a vial of bergamot oil and drink it until i cry and realize the error of my ways?

Not having sufficiently bergamot-essenced earl gray is my own afghanistan.

    Upton Tea Company has an “Extra Bergamot Early Grey” that’s amazing. You will, of course, need a tea ball etc to go with it, but those are cheap.

    And I agree with you, the taste is like a new color that somehow I couldn’t see before.
