Earl Grey Loose Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 13th, 2020
This is the first time I'm trying Bigelow Earl Grey in loose form. I've purchased the teabags in the past, but from other experiences, I know that the loose tea and teabags don't always have the same taste.
My first impression was that, compared to other black earl grey teas I've gotten in tins, this variety has muc...
Organic Earl Grey (Loose) from Harney and Sons
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 23rd, 2019
This smells and tastes like some halfway point between Bigelow Earl Grey and Twinings Earl Grey. With Bigelow, the bergamot note is strong and pointed and the tea has a more earthy taste. With Twinings, the bergamot note is more gentle and the tea has a more woody taste. With Harney & Sons Earl Grey, the bergamot note ...

Earl Grey Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd

Nov. 12th, 2019
Now this was an unexpected treat! Rarely (if ever) have I had the loose and bagged version of a tea from the same company, at the same time, from the same order. Not only that, they're rather different (how?), but both delicious. I specifically had ordered the EG loose mainly for my wife, and the EG bags came in a v...

Earl Grey from Bigelow Tea

Nov. 10th, 2019
This is tea from a tea bag, so right from the start, we're not dealing with the best quality. But, this sort of tea isn't for having a gourmet experience. If it were, they wouldn't sell it for a few dollars at the local supermarket. It's a daily tea. On that level, it does fine.
The flavor profile is different from ...
Earl Grey Decaffeinated from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Nov. 10th, 2019
Twining's US uses a less-health-hazardous method for extracting caffeine from tea. I commend them for that, in principle. In practice, this is a terrible way of extracting caffeine because it takes all of the flavor along with it. There is a better way of doing it that is both less health-hazardous and maintains flavor...

Earl Grey from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd

Oct. 10th, 2019
We gleefully had sniffed demo leaves of Murchie's Earl Grey in their Victoria store before, but since had brought home and ordered only the tea bags of the cream version (Earl Grey Cream). My wife is a bigtime EG drinker—probably half her total tea consumption—and wanted some loose-leaf tea as part of our annual f...

Double Bergamot Earl Grey Tea from Stash Tea

My favorite Earl Grey. Being a person who likes things on the strong side, I love the double bergamot. It is not overwhelming at all.

Earl Grey from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????64 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 6th, 2019
I got this from a restaurant hot-tea selection box and took home an extra bag to taste-test on good well water. The bergamot was somewhat feeble throughout the consumption experience. Still, it's among the better Twinings teas I've had (yes, I realize that's not saying much).
Sweetened, as I always do, this prod...
Upton Natural Bergamot Earl Grey from Upton Tea Imports

More floral and perfumey than a typical EG. It is not Upton's best but it is a worthwhile tea.

Aged Earl Grey™ - Bergamot Black from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Assam, India67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 9th, 2019
This is one of the best Earl Greys I've had. The base tea is wonderful and the bergamot is subtle. Note that I'm saying that "subtle" is a positive thing, so if you like Earl Grey with a powerful citrus flavor, then this one might not be what you're looking for.
That said, the tea is extremely mellow for an Assam in...
Special Blend (Teabags) from Ahmad Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 28th, 2019
A local Middle Eastern market had a gift pack of this tea along with a free Ahmad tea mug for $4, so I couldn't pass it up. I decided to try it alongside the loose leaf Special Blend. One thing that I'll note is that, though I assume they're intended to be the same tea, the packaging on the bagged tea doesn't include t...

Feb. 13th, 2019
It is always exciting for me to see a new Earl Grey appear among Upton's line up. This one strikes a great balance, with a light bergamot presence matched with a mellow base tea. This makes for an EG that tastes lovely and never irritates or seems too aggressive.

English Tea No. 1 from Ahmad Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 1st, 2019
The "subtle flavor of bergamot" is definitely subtle. I can't actually smell any bergamot in the dry tea. Instead, it smells entirely like a malty CTC Assam.
While the tea's brewing, I can just make out the citrus through the tea. I'm getting less malt than when dry, but much more dry, tannic, earthy leaf with a bac...
Upton Chocolate Earl Grey from Upton Tea Imports

I thought this might be a real mess - (a blend of tea, bergamot, chocolate, flower petals and lemon peel?) - but it is a nice mellow tea, best with milk. Excellent when some lapsang souchong is added!

This was one of the few Earl grey brands I’ve tried that managed to disappoint me. Not much to say about the flavor or scent.

I like this as a very neutral delicious tasting Earl grey. The bergamot is much more mild than other teas which makes it perfect to go with various desserts.

Had this at a cafe recently as a London Fog. They put THREE teabags in it and it was really overwhelming. Drank half the cup then added milk and it was so much better. Bought some to make myself and will update the review then.

One of my favorite Earl grey teas for use in Royal milk tea. The bergamot flavoring is very strong making it overwhelming to drink straight, but with milk and honey it’s like having dessert in a glass.

Steep Earl Grey Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2019
The dry tea smells very strongly of bergamot and very much like Bigelow's regular Earl Grey.
The taste is much different than the regular Bigelow. Much more tea shines through the citrus. I suspect that the base tea is the Steep English Breakfast, which is a flavorful Sri Lankan/Ceylon tea with a mellow cocoa bitter...
Decaffeinated Earl Grey from Harney and Sons

Nov. 28th, 2018
I don't hate this tea but I really don't like it either. It costs 24 cents per cup and I can have much better black tea for cheaper than that so it's not worth it for me. The aroma is very faint and just smells like black tea. This tea tastes smooth but its also kind of plain. The aftertaste kind of tastes like paper t...

Earl Grey from Allegro

Nov. 2nd, 2018
When you have lemons, make lemonade? That seems to have happened here. While not overpowering, the distinct aroma of lemon wafted rather aggressively out of the pouch when I tore it open, and that scent stayed in the dry bag strongly until pouring the hot water through it. The in-cup smell was more balanced, but the...

A weakly-flavored, not very aromatic tea experience. If you're looking for a very mild, decaffeinated tea that's easy on the stomach, this is a good choice, but if you were hoping for intense flavors, maybe try something else.

As far as breakfast teas go, I've always been a fan of Earl Grey. That said, I do have my favorites and many companies don't seem to do Earl Grey justice. While this isn't my favorite, it is an excellent option. It's smooth but with a smoky/sweet flavor, not unexpected from a Darjeeling tea. This particular tea gets al...

Admittedly I haven't been up to the Urban Teahouse location in OKC as of this writing, but drinking this at a Norman breakfast restaurant, and getting a sample to take home and chug, makes me want to pay a dangerous visit next time I'm up in that part of "The Big Town". Why dangerous? Because of what that visit woul...

Earl Grey Supreme (Teabags) from Harney and Sons

Jul. 25th, 2018
Like the other standard tea bags from H&S, the tea is chopped very fine. Dry, it smells strongly of the bergamot oil, but there's also a maltiness from the tea. It's not strong, but it's a step up from many Earl Grey teas.
Adding the water unexpectedly mutes the aroma. The citrus fades to the background and the tea...
