The potential capital loss from rotten tea results in foul-tasting swill that becomes iconic because of a sci-fi show about a socialist utopia… there is a message in there somewhere, but I’m not quite sure what it is.
I want a word with the person who was drinking an earl grey tea and thought, “This is the flavor my loopy fruity cereal needs. A toucan would definitely eat this!”
Bergamot is disgusting and whoever decided to add it to tea should be flogged.
Iirc it was Earl Grey, who decided to just sell the tea that was spoiled in his ship’s cargo hold when a container with bergamot broke above it.

Man, ain’t it weird how tastes can vary so much? It’s the bergamot that made me like Earl Grey, which was what made me finally enjoy hot teas at all.

I feel the same way about patchouli, but I’d substitute “drowned in fluoroantimonic acid” for “flogged”.
I agree, that is also disgusting, but I have never had it in tea.
