Lemon & Orange Tea Bags

Commercial Description
A delicious blend inspired by the Chinese ancients, who blended their teas with the essences of fruits and flowers. We have combined black tea with the sweet, tangy flavour of citrus fruits for a tea to enjoy at any time of the day.
Brewing Instructions: (from Taylors of Harrogate)
For the perfect cup we recommend that you use one tea bag. Add freshly boiled water and infuse for 3-5 minutes. The fruity flavour is best appreciated on its own, or can be sweetened with sugar or honey.

The tea in the bags is in small enough pieces that it's difficult to tell if it started out orthodox or CTC, but I think it's orthodox. It smells pleasently lemon-orange, but no tea shines through yet. After adding the water, the tea smells like fresh orange pulp. The tea itself is muted with the barest hint of malt rising above the citrus.
When tasted, the lemon-orange combination is like the bergamot in Earl Grey without its bitterness, which allows the flavors of the tea to come through more. The bitterness, malt, and astringency are balanced, but mild. The citrus really predominates, but there are some earthy flavors that I can't quite place and that I don't find quite pleasant. It tastes a bit like the white of an orange peel. As the tea cools a bit, it begins to taste more bitter and unpleasantly so. The box claims that the blend is mainly Kenyan, but I don't taste the strong maltiness that those teas are known for. I'm quite disappointed with this tea overall.

I adore this tea. I've been drinking brands found in America and sampling specialty teas for years. I tried this at a conference two years ago and was floored. I'd never tasted tea with such bold, fruity flavor. I can't go back to other teas. I've found perfection.
