Earl Grey Vanilla Macaron w/ Earl Grey-Infused White Chocolate Ganache

To celebrate the completion of Michael Pisaro's two new pieces 'Hearing Metal 2' and 'Hearing Metal 3' - Pisaro's new amazing collaboration works with Greg Stuart, which will be released from Gravity Wave soon.

This might be the best macaron I ever made so far - the complexity and the balance between all the ingredients created the perfect harmony of tastes/flavors/textures, with the deep earl grey tea flavor as a core. I added 3 grams of earl grey tea leaves into the macaron shell batter, and sprinkled a pinch of earl grey tea leaves on top before baking. Ganache was made of white chocolate, earl grey-infused heavy cream, vanilla extract.
