I’m a big fan of Earl Grey tea. The fruity bergamot flavor is a terrific complement to both black and green teas. This particular Earl Grey black tea by Wissotzky seems to be hiding both the tea and bergamot flavors under a bushel. I am doubtful that I would have pinpointed the presence of bergamot if I hadn’t first read the list of ingredients on the package. It isn’t just the low level of bergamot that is disappointing here. I also struggled to cull any identifiable tea flavor at all. The flavor that is present is not bad, there just isn’t enough of it.

Just out of curiosity, where are you getting Wissotzky tea? Are you in Israel?

I am in the United States. I bought this tea through QVC.com (http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.M20301.desc.Wissotzky-Tea-Serving-Box-with-80-Assorted-Teas) as part of an 80-assorted-tea gift box. It was a great deal! In this day and age, if you can’t find what you’re looking for in your local store, chances are you can get it on-line. Thank you for your question. Happy sipping!

Oh, I’m not looking to purchase their teas. I’m in Israel and Wissotzky is our biggest tea manufacturer, and sold just about everywhere here.

I was just surprised to see a review of their teas as I didn’t know they sold Wissozky in the US.

I ventured into the world of serious tea drinking in the Summer of 2011. I started out slowly and gently with bagged tea but climbed to the incredible flavorful heights of loose leaf teas in October of that year. Once you go leaf, you never go bag (except when you get free samples)!
