I have been drinking Earl Grey since a long time ago. It is an acquired taste meaning either you like it or you don't. It is actually ceylon tea infused with bergamot ( a citrus like fruit ). Many of my friends, when I serve them Earl Grey, they say it tasted like soap powder .



I drink chinese tea or green tea very sparingly unless I am eating Bak Kut Teh as I find chinese tea kind of cleanses the heavy oil that I absorb. As for ceylon tea, I take it quite heavily. When I was staying in Cameron Highlands, the tea that I bought there tasted so much nicer than here in KL even when I bought the same packing and brand! Probably their freshness. That's why when I visit CH, I used to visit the Palas plantation and buy lots of them back.

I missed those days when I used to have dinner under the stars ( lo teen ) in Tanah Rata. When the cold wind is blowing and you are cupping yours hands over a HOT glass of teh-O, tasted like heaven Not even expensive tea can give me a feeling like that.
