I got this as a sample and ended up loving it. Now that I've gotten myself more, I can certainly say this is a superb Earl Grey to add to my favorites. The green tea and bergamot work so well with each other. An added bonus is being able to enjoy this in the evening unlike some stronger Earl Greys.
I got this as a sample, and it's lovely. I've seen green Earl Grey blends all over the place before, but for some reason I'd never tried one until now. Maybe I assumed it would be stodgy and boring, but this tea is anything but. The slight astringency of the green tea base complements the bergamot flavor in a way that I never would have anticipated. Give it a try!
This tea was a sample with my order and I absolutely love the flavor. I have always loved Earl Grey Tea but this is over the top! I will be buying this for gifts (and myself).
Surprising combination of Sencha with Bergamot. With the vegetal taste of the Green Tea the Bergamot comes through a little more like Eucalyptus. Overall it works, though, and makes for a refreshing light cup. Probably would be a great iced tea in the summer.
