Jul. 25th, 2014

Not my tea, unfortunately--too strong with the black tea flavor for me. The little bit of strawberry flavor made the bitterness a little more palatable, so I certainly enjoyed this more than I would a simple black tea. The aroma was better, with the same two elements but with the fruit coming through a bit more strongl...

93 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 25th, 2014

The bergamot that makes this an Earl Grey tea is of high quality and not at all obtrusive. The "French Blue" refers to the addition of "bleuet royal" (blue cornflower). My wife and I have enjoyed this blend for years. We believe It is one of the better Earl Greys on the market. It is available loose and in sachets.

90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 25th, 2014

Marco Polo is a very successful blend from the venerable house of Mariage Frères. Aside from evoking the "flowers and fruits of China and Tibet" it is a smooth tea. It has a suggestion of vanilla, honey and caramel without a bit of sweetness. Can take a little milk, if you like it that way.

Gorgeous Earl Grey from Pukka

Jul. 25th, 2014

I normally really like Earl Grey tea, but Pukka's is the only Earl Grey that I have tried which I don't like. The aroma is weak, it's a bit bitter and the flavor is lackluster.

I can drink it, but I don't enjoy it (and wish I hadn't bought it).

Jul. 23rd, 2014

Nothing mind blowing, but the merging of Caramel, Ginger, and Vanilla flavors makes a richly flavored cup with depth and satisfaction.

Make sure to steep at just below boiling for three minutes as the brew can get bitter.

Jul. 22nd, 2014

The aroma is leafy, like fresh vegetation, this fades to vanilla sweetness and a nutty tone. At the end of the sniff the aroma is sweet and a touch floral. I do not smell much in the way of tamarind, but it has been a long time since I sniffed any.

Tasting this tea gave me a bit of a surprise, because it reminds me ...

smell is very good and is exactly what you would expect from the flavor it is suppose to be. Flavor goes in a different direction though...tastes a bit like black licorice to me. Slight spicyness on the end...good, but would be better if it tasted as it smells.

Jul. 19th, 2014

This is my favorite Earl Grey tea. Well balanced Bergamot flavor. Nice large tea bags w/o strings. It is hard to come by in the U.S. and is not hermetically sealed so the quality varies depending on how the tea is stored. My recent mail-order from Amazon was a disappointment even though the expire date is 18 mo. awa...

Smells like peaches and cream oatmeal!! mmm! Best smelling tea ever! Unfortunately all that richness and flavor in the smell turns into a slightly bitter black tea that actually has only mild fruit flavor. The black tea itself is bold though.

Jul. 6th, 2014

Definitely one of the best black teas I've tried. It isn't bitter (even though I accidentally brewed it for almost 9 minutes), and the blueberry flavor goes with it very well. The fruitiness is present, but not overwhelming and the flavor seems natural. As usual, I didn't add any sugar, milk, or lemon juice.

very good smell and taste....the strength is just about right too...steeped 4 minutes but didn't boil as directed. Perhaps a bit longer steep next time. The amount of flavoring seems spot on....not overpoweringly artificial or an underpowered hint.
