I found this Earl Grey to be much smoother than others I have tried (Twinings, Stash, etc.) and even better when a bit of milk is added. This is one of my regulars and will remain at the top of my cupboard.

First Steep

Relatively subtle smell. Not particularly strong or bitter taste. Moderately astringent bergamot aftertaste.

Nothing special as far as Earl Grey teas go – I’ve have better, but I’ve also had worse.

Second Steep

Even more subtle smell. Same not particularly strong or bitter taste. Formerly astringent bergamot aftertaste is much smoother.

Second steep is much better than the first – bumped the rating.

The only word I can use to describe this Early Grey is “peppery”. Not sure if that makes sense or not, but that’s what I get. Not my favorite, but still drinkable.

Everyone on here that is saying all earl greys taste the same need to take a second look. In my humble opinion you have some pretty crappy earl greys on the market and some pretty good ones. Just because the tea is flavored in the same style as a competitor’s tea you can still get huge differences. With that being said this is one of the better earl greys ( although not the best ) on the market. This earl grey is more complex than many of the other earl greys I have tasted.

Specifically you can taste the tea and it isn’t overpowered by the bergamont flavoring, I like this aspect of this specific blend of Earl Grey. I don’t think the tea leaves are as cheap as many of the competitors version of Earl Grey.

Simply put — this is delicious! A bit on the strong side and probably one of the only teas I put a dash of sugar in — but one of my favorites for sure! Great with rock sugars!

I’m with Rachel C up there. I was also surprised by this tea. I was at a cafe with a friend and this was the Earl Grey they brought when I ordered tea. I’d heard of Mighty Leaf and knew it was supposed to be a nice tea, but had never tried any of them. I expected a cup of standard Earl Grey and prepared myself for bergamot overload, but it wasn’t there. There wasn’t any oily/heavy/killed-by-bergamot flavor. It was just a nice little Earl Grey that was very well done. I bought a box the next day.

I don’t usually like earl grey tea, but I did like this one. I thought it had a good flavor. It gave me a headache though, does anyone know why that would happen?

Nice, standard Earl Grey – a little heavy on the Bergamot, I think. I drank this bagged, with milk and sweetner.

A nice basic Earl Grey, but not quite as smooth as some of the more high-end varieties out there. Astringent (which is OK for some Earl drinkers), and satisfying, but not impressive.

I’m not an Earl Grey fan but this one was pretty good. This tea was strong just like the other Mighty Leaf teas.

I’ve actually never had Earl Grey before. I got this as a sample sachet in my Harney order so why not give it a go? This was pretty good. Can’t say it’s the best earl grey I’ve ever had since it was the only Earl Grey I’ve ever had.

This is one of the few teas where over-steeping really does ruin the tea for me (hey, I’m forgetful, and the internet is full of distractions).
I always end up buying this tea at the train station, and it’s one of the few teas sold on-the-go in my area that doesn’t taste like sorrow and buyer’s regret. It’s good, standard Earl Grey, just do not let it steep too long or it will taste horrible.

A pretty bog-standard Earl Grey. It’s delicious (as any Earl Grey is) but nothing to write home about. I’d drink this as readily as any other Earl Grey.

Nothing special, but a good earl grey nonetheless.

Great to drink on a rainy day. One of the better earl greys I’ve ever had; was lighter, more fragrant. Very enjoyable.

It’s earl grey. It tastes like a good cup of earl grey. No complaints there, but you could probably find the same thing a bit cheaper than Mighty Leaf offers.

Had this yesterday . It was part of the variety pack I have . Very nice , stronger than most .

At first glance a pretty standard Earl Grey, but the lovely aftertaste and aroma of Jasmine sets it apart. It’s very bergamonty, meaning it’s somewhat on the bitter side, but I happen to really enjoy that. A touch of sweetness offsets the bitter and rounds out the flavour of this tea. This is my go-to earl grey.
