The Assam base gives this a malty backbone that holds up well to a splash of milk, and the bergamot is there without being perfumey. I've been drinking it every morning for two weeks and the tin's already getting low.

The Assam base gives this a malty backbone that holds up well to the bergamot instead of getting lost under it. I've been steeping it about four minutes with a splash of milk and it's become my default morning cup.
