As with the black tea version of Constant Comment, the dominant flavors are clove and orange peel. I'm tasting them both side-by-side at the moment and since Bigelow's green and black teas are both mild, the differences are subtle. The flavor of the green tea has a nice brightness and a faint hint of the grassy bitterness of Chinese green teas. I already like Constant Comment and am a bit surprised to find that I like the green version better. Ultimately, I find Bigelow's green tea base to show through the spice more than the black tea.
My criticism of the black tea version still applies to the green in that I would like to have a bit more tea flavor along with the fruit and spice. Unfortunately, I find Bigelow's green tea to be a little insipid, but I think the green version is still better overall than the black tea version.
