I love my bergamot.
I got this as a free sample from the NM Tea Company and I wish I had a couple ounces of it, this is good stuff. I’m usually not too crazy about mint teas because the mint tends to get overpowering, but in this tea I can also taste the tea and more importantly the bergamot. The mint blends well with it.
I only meant to steep this tea for 2 minutes but got distracted, I think it would be better with a shorter steeping time but it was still good. Added just a little sugar and drink it like I drink my regular Earl Grey – enjoying and trying to make it last instead of gulping it down too fast.

It is a very attractive tea, one of the best smelling I've ever sniffed. I'd like to get a shower gel that smells like this.
Like Dorian Grey there are several teas with this name but are different, a lot of them are actually tisanes.

- Mariage Freres Casablanca is similar to NM Tea Casablanca, green tea with Moroccan mint and bergamot-flavoured tea

Its a play on "Moroccan Mint" which is green tea and mint. So in my mind any Casablanca should be, at its heart, a mint green tea! ;)
