If you want to try tea I wouldn't try earl grey first, it has a funny taste to me - and I drink a lot of tea. Try english breakfast (twinings if you can get it), or even better orange pekoe, but all the other instructions are spot on.

There are so many different flavours that black tea can be, no two brands taste the same, if you really want to enjoy it though avoid supermarket tea bags they are so very dull.
