アールグレイ ラベンダー

The lavender comes through so clearly without overpowering the bergamot, and the citrusy kick from the pressed fruit makes it feel brighter than your usual Earl Grey. I've been drinking this as my afternoon pick-me-up and it's honestly the most calming cup I've had in ages.

I’ve been brewing this every afternoon since it arrived, and the bergamot really pops while the lavender stays soft in the background. The dry leaves smell almost like a citrus grove, and the cup turns a lovely deep red-black that matches the category name exactly.

I wasn’t expecting the bergamot to be this bright—it’s like a fresh citrus burst that wakes up the lavender instead of letting it fade into the background. The organic blossoms give it a soft, calming finish that makes each cup feel like a slow exhale. Definitely my new afternoon ritual.
