Reviews Summary
Customers say this Earl Grey tea offers a sophisticated twist on the classic with prominent bergamot, plum, and clove flavors.

The plum flavor is frequently mentioned, with some finding it perfectly balanced while others note it can be quite strong or overpowering. Customers appreciate the fragrant aroma that fills the kitchen and the tea's versatility for morning or afternoon enjoyment. A few reviewers find the flavor combination too intense or prefer more traditional Earl Grey, but most praise this bold, flavorful blend as an excellent upgrade to standard varieties.

    Great combo

    Dynamite combination of flavors. Perfect with a touch of honey. If you add more honey you lose the flavors to sweetness. A touch of honey hints brings out all the flavors.
