For a cheap, bagged Earl Grey, this one is in the “not bad at all” range. The bergamot is there, but it’s not too cloying or perfumey. I’d say it’s just right. The tea itself isn’t as strong as I prefer, considering I steeped it for five minutes, but neither is it terribly bitter. I like this brand better than others I have tried and for readily available teas that are probably in your friends’ pantries, this is one I don’t mind drinking. I drank my last cup with a splash of skim milk and no sugar. I usually drink it plain. Hot.

Flavors: Bergamot, Lavender, Orange

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 5 min, 0 sec 2 g 8 OZ / 236 ML

I’ve recently returned home to NY after decades of living out West and in the South where people only drink tea iced with enough sugar to put a rhino in a coma. I drink my tea without milk or sugar, same as my coffee, because I want to taste it. Irish Breakfast (Barry’s please!) and Earl Grey are my daily cups and I’m always happy to try creative, custom blends and am lucky to have high quality tea shops nearby.
