Grocery store teas often deserve more credit than they are sometimes granted by those who graduate to better teas. Are there better Earl Grey teas out there? You bet. Is this, when doctored up a bit with some cream and sugar, a reasonable tasty beverage? It is.
Disclaimer out of the way, this Earl Grey has just enough of a (vaguely lemon'ish) bergamont to carry a single steep in a small cup. After that you're left with a one-note black with very little aroma and too much astringency.
