A Perfect EGC
I looove Earl Grey Cremes, and this is one of the very finest I've tried. Rich, smooth, and silky, like vanilla pudding in a cup. Or a heavily frosted lemon cupcake! The bergamot isn't overwhelmed by the vanilla but stands up well, and this is easily identifiable as an EG. And the best part? It resteeps quite well!

Not my favorite
This Earl Grey was nice and smooth, but I hardly tasted the bergamot. I was disappointed, because this has the potential to be a sensational tea.

Yummy
Yum! The black tea base is smooth and this blend contains just enough vanilla to complement the bergamot without muting it. The vanilla also adds a slight sweetness and creaminess to the tea that negates the need for milk or sugar. I love the way the dry leaves smell and this tea is great served hot or cold.

This tea is great! I bought this to introduce myself to earl grey because I wasn't sure I would like the flavor of bergamot. This is fantastic and the leaves have an amazing smell. It's so smooth and has the perfect amount of sweetness and bergamot. I'll be back for more!

This tea is delicious! I smell my tin of this about 10x as often as I drink it. It is a bit strong for my tastes, but it's still yummy. A friend of mine described it as smelling like cream soda... another said a cake! Either way, yum!

This tea has the most incredible aroma, and it's so rich and creamy. I would have to say it's probably in my top five teas of all time.

You simply have to try this tea!
I tried this tea at my friend's house, and wasn't expecting to like it that much as I'm generally not an earl grey fan, but she insisted I try it and... I was completely bowled over! I'm now an earl grey convert! I think I'm going to try the herbal grey next, as it has no caffeine.
