One of my new favorites!

I love Earl Grey, but didn't think I would like this one, because it smells a bit different from regular Early Grey. However, the flavor is excellent. It's a bit smokier than regular Earl Grey, but has a very full taste and works well with both heavy and light steeping.

I LOVE THIS TEA!!

It was a fantastic combination of fruity and floral, with the richness of the bergamot being a huge highlight. Can't wait to order more!

Tasty twist on Earl Grey

This tea is very good, although I wish there was more of the plum flavor.
