Call me excessive…but I had this again for my evening tea! I’m just crazy for it! I do think it’s a homage to Marco Polo – it’s different – more raspberry/currant rather than strawberry, more baked custard rather than cream, and not floral, so I think there is a place for both in my cupboard, but I do think dear Marco was the inspiration for it.
My husband pronounced it “girly.”(he’s not a big fan of Marco Polo either!) Hmph!

I’m still trying to figure out why they say lemony bergamot. All I get is berry/current/plum from this tea. My wife concurs, she loves this tea so we always have a tin.
Ughhh with all of the good reviews of this I think I need to try the bit that’s waiting for me! You make this sound absolutely wonderful! Wheee!
you are now the second person i’ve seen in the past day rate this above 95. I’m really really interested in this tea now….
Hmm, now I really need to get me some Paris the next time I purchase from Harney. I didn’t like Marco Polo either. Must not be a guys tea =]

Jacqueline- I thought the same thing when I tried it about Marco Polo being it’s inspiration. I like them both too I found Marco Polo to be a bit sweeter in flavor.
