Oooh. Lapsang Souchong with bergamot? I’m going to give that a try. I’ll go blend up a bit and then report back and let you know…

I own a tea bar. I also can’t stand coffee, so I’ve been drinking tea my whole life.

:smack: Oh, yeah. We enabled polls in Cafe Society. I forgot.

I’m looking forward to hearing how the Post-Apocalyptic Earl Gray works out! (Named thus because, with the smokiness of the lapsang, it should be like Earl Gray that survived some firey holocaust and came out awesome.)

Also: You own a tea bar? Can I be your friend?
