Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I've been an Earl Grey fan for well over a decade, and constantly on the search for the perfect blend. This one is up there with the best. I LOVE the strong bergamot flavor! Too many of the bagged varieties taste weak and watery. This one is medium to full-bodied, depending on how much you use per pot, and I appreciate having that flexibility with loose teas.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I already loved Earl Grey but Teevana Earl Grey became my favorite with one sip. I use organic sugar and soy milk in mine. The way it smells while steeping is just incredible. Other Earl Greys just taste watered down now. I've been ruined. (or is it spoiled).

I was given a Teevana gift set which included this tea. Easily one of the best gifts I've ever received.

The best. Don't ever change a thing.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

This is the best Earl Grey I have ever had. It is full of Flavor.
I normally steep Earl Grey for about 3 mins.
If you steep this tea too long it will taste very bitter.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

This tea reminds me of England. Its unique flavor is great anytime, and the bergamot oil is supposedly anti-depressant; it makes me happy! This tea is an inexpensive, everyday tea you'll grow to love.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I've tried more varieties of Earl Grey than I can count on both hands. Most are mediocre at best, but this tea is truly enjoyable. I can think of a very short list of earl grey teas that are better but you can't definitely can't do any better than Teavana for quality and taste at this price range. I've bought this tea as a gift for many of the tea drinkers I know and they've always come back for more.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

This tea is an experience. Smooth, fragrant, relaxing -- just a real treat. I had never had Earl Grey tea and now it is my favorite tea. The Bergamot oil makes it feel exotic. I'm not sure what the cornflowers do, but this blend of tea is just superb. I highly recommend it.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I've been drinking Earl Grey for years, so I was disappointed in Teavana's blend. It had far too much bergamot. Mixing it 1 part Earl Grey with 2 parts plain black tea brought it back down to a drinkable level. Perhaps it tastes better with sugar or milk, but I drink it straight.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I have just been introduced to loose tea and my first experience is wonderful. I'm too new to critique it so I'll just say "this one is a keeper". Grey has such a wonderful flavor, I couldn't decide whether to use a little sweetener. I think I just became a "tea person".

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

This Early Grey is an exceptional tea. The key: the amount of bergamot oil. 3x what Peets and other more common varieties have.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

I absolutely love this tea steeped exactly like Teavana recommends for all black teas on the back of the bag it comes in. I know milk and sugar or honey is usually recommended for tea if anything at all is to be added, but this exquisite tea is especially nice as a dessert tea and is lovely with a little bit of real maple syrup (NOT the fake stuff!) and some real half'n'half. It compliments the delightful flavor of the oil of bergamot perfectly.

Comments about Teavana Earl Grey Flavored Black Tea:

What a flavor treat. I was in a brand name coffee shop and wanted some tea. Knowing that most bag teas have no flavor, I noticed a tin of fancy earl grey in those little mesh pyramids and ordered a cup. I brewed it for a good long time, and lo and behold absolutely no bergamot flavor at all. Teavana is the best. From now on I'm carrying my own tea and just ordering hot water!!
