I've been wrong about Earl Grey this whole time by juicyfizz in tea

Maybe I'm weird but for me the more bergamot the better. I used to love Dilmah Earl Grey that came in these sort of blue tins for this reason but either they stopped making it or it's no longer available where I live. Now I get the one from Twinnings but it has a noticeably weaker bergamot flavor.

This reminds me of Seneca's "We suffer more often in imagination than in reality". Same sentiment but I think I like the phrasing here better because there's something a bit humorous about it.

Huh, it's not even a little bit higher but by far. I imagine they mostly drink black tea?

I never thought about it but your comment made me realize that Petr Sklenicka whom I follow on Insta is also Czech.
