The Dragon's Breath Earl Grey is a blend of smoky sophistication and citrus delight that combines the classic bergamot orange flavor with the cedarwood essence of Lapsang. The leaves are infused with the smoky essence of Lapsang Souchong, which is created through a special process of drying the tea leaves over pinewood fires. Though its strong campfire-like scent may seem overwhelming, the tea itself has a lighter, more nuanced taste. Bright bergamot adds a zesty contrast, perfectly balancing the deep smokiness. The citrus notes sparkle against the earthy, smoky base, offering flavors of burnt sugar, sweet orange, and tart lemon. Delicate cardamom and soft floral hints add complexity and depth. The finish is mildly astringent, a gentle reminder of its black tea origins. If the smoky flavor feels too strong, adding a bit of milk can create a creamy smoothness that softens the intensity, while a touch of sugar enhances the natural sweetness and citrusy notes.
