Tea Notes: Rich & Floral

Caffeinated Tea Blend

Celebrating the hit series, Our Flag Means Death, this blend is crafted after Edward Teach, or as he is fearsomely known: Blackbeard. A dark brew of three different black teas swirls together with some yummy lavender to celebrate the softer side of our favorite pirate duo. Each jar is topped with a single red candy heart, reminiscent of the final reveal of Blackbeard's flag.

The flavors and scent will change as the tea steeps, so be sure to take some time while your brew infuses to experience the journey.

 

Ingredients:

Black tea blend and lavender.

All ingredients are organic.

 

The tea bag contains around 1.5 ounces of loose leaf tea, the jar contains 3.5-4 ounces of loose leaf tea.

Stunning, gentle lavender tea

I did get this for its fandom connection. But, I also prefer lavender as a mix-in for black tea (as opposed to bergamot). If you like Earl Grey, and perhaps find it a little too strong, I'd give this a try. The tea base is lovely and a good foil to the lavender, which isn't too astringent. I overbrew it compared to most folks' advice, and I find that a brew time of 6-7 minutes with water at ~210F is ideal for my taste. Personally, I add a bit of oat milk and it's wonderful.

Filled with love

I legitimately had half a mug before going online to order more. This is the “softest” black tea I’ve had—no harshness or bitter taste that needs milk or sugar. You can drink this straight and it is delicious! the delicate lavender makes the black tea even better and I am in love!

The little heart in the bag is a nice surprise and such a cute nod to the show!

A Great Black Tea for the Spring & Summer

My next order after I got the “Gentleman Pirate” tea was for its companion tea blend “His Name is Ed”. I was a little nervous about the taste description, I was worried that with all that black tea it might be a little too bitter for my taste. But I was very curious and since I already had the first blend I decided to take a chance and order the other too, when it arrived in the mail and I brewed it up I was very pleasantly surprised and delighted!

Much like Edward Teach (aka Captain Blackbeard) from OFMD, this tea is defiantly strong and bold with the black tea but with the mix of (yummy) lavender in the blend it has a surprising soft floral side that brings everything together.

This is a perfect black tea to have during the spring & summer if you want something strongly caffeinated without any of the spices from the fall & winter blends. It’s really good with some sugar or cream (or both if you’re in the mood ♡).
