type: black

variety: earl grey

ingredients: bergamot flavor black tea

caffeine: strong

price level: $$$$

For our special Earl Grey, we're adamant about using only the best bergamot oil. We source ours from the same garden in Calabria, Italy year after year. Then we carefully blend this flavorful and aromatic bergamot with a bold handpicked black tea... a recipe like no other.

      It's a great box tea if you're in the supermarket. Not recommended if you're a tea connoisseur, it's not super fancy.

      The first Earl Grey I ever sipped way back when I was in college. Gateway tea to better teas. Great tea when on the go or away from my tea stash in a hotel. Definitely pulverized tea bag tea, but definitely sippable.

      Great to have on hand for traveling. Earl grey has a unique taste.

    • 

      My introduction into earl grey teas, a very nice starting point, very affordable (especially if you have family or friends that like to try things but don’t always drink em) my family composts so I love a good biodegradable bag, and the foil lined packets to protect the tea. Not the best but a great brand overall if you’re looking to try something you’re not sure wbout

      Pretty standard as Earl Grey teas go, but there's nothing wrong with a classic! It has the convenience of bags, and they're single wrapped so they pack well for tea on the go. My tastes say it's best with a bit of cream and sugar, but for a nice twist, add some vanilla coffee creamer instead. Gives it an Earl Grey Creme taste which is quite pleasant

      I love bergamot and Earl Grey. Unfortunately I can't drink more than one cup at a time because of the caffeine. But this has great flavor in the convenience of store bought tea bags

    • 

      A good, standard Earl Grey tea. Nothing super fancy, but then again it's a tea-bag. Hits the spot and serves its purpose.

    • 

      Strongly flavored with bergamot oil. I can see the oils sitting on the top of the water. Not sure what to do with this flavor.

      I love this early gray, for a teabag it really can't be beat

    • 

      Decent enough if you don't have or can't use loose tea. I'll throw a few of these in my bag when I'm staying overnight at a friends and don't have access to my fancier teas.

      This review is from my mother. My Mom loves this tea very much, especially with cream and honey. She said it is a nice bold and very tasty tea that she will buy again.

      I like this earl grey tea. Not as strong as the tea leaves but nice for a quick cup.

      A good everyday tea, that also combines really well with milk!

      Good every day tea. I love taking this one with me when I travel for a great morning adventuring!

    • 

      I keep this on hand to serve to my family that is used to very basic black tea bags from the grocery store. Decent for what it is and the price point, but definitely not my personal go to flavor or brand. Obligatory Jean Muc Picard reference here.

    • 

      This is my favorite bagged earl grey tea. I enjoyed it with some milk and a little honey. Just don’t over steep it or it might be a little bitter

      Fantastic tea, one of my favorites. Perfect with some sugar and milk.

      Just as expected, a cup of earl gray. Nothing special. But it's pretty good!

    • 

      One of my first Earl Greys. Simple, basic tea that just gets it right. Plus, if there's any fault it's that it's too weak and the stuff is priced low enough you can use more than one bag.

      Very strong bergamot taste with a hint of black tea. If you like that without much more complexity, this is the tea for you!

      This is so warm, it is pretty nostalgic for me. I might be biased

      Easy going and easy to get your hands on kind of tea.

      Easily my favorite earl grey I have ever had. This is my go-to tea whenever I need a bit of a pick-me-up.

      An excellent and easy earl grey tea. I can taste both the black tea and the citrus.

      Honestly a pretty solid earl grey! Not my go-to brand but it's still very good.

    • 

      This is actually my all-time favorite Earl Grey. I have tried other companies, and lots of loose leaf versions, but there's just something about Bigelow's bergamot flavor that I like better than all the others.

      I love this tea. It’s a nice earl grey with being to intense. It has a depth of flavor to it and there is enough tea inside to make a pot if you wish.

    • 

      Meh. I like Earl Grey, but this one seems off to me. It doesn't drink smooth.

      Very good Earl Gray. I have it every morning unsweetened and it always hits the spot.

      It’s a good full bodied Earl Grey and convenient to use.

      I would have preferred a stronger bergamot flavor.

      I enjoy the taste of bergamot in any early grey, this one is no exception. Nice basic tea to keep around the house.

      This tea will not blow your socks off, but if you are looking for a good, affordable, and accessible Earl Grey, this tea is for you.

      Very nice for a boxed teabag Earl Grey.

      Maybe I’m just picky, because it is okay for the price. But I’ve definitely had ones that I much prefer to this earl grey.

      This is my go-to tea in the morning. Great quality at a great price. And you can find it everywhere.

      Been drinking this for years, does the trick to get me going in the morning! Great with vanilla creamer.

      It's a very drinkable cuppa Earl Grey. It and the decaf version are both good basics.

      never been a fan of earl grey but this tea is pretty good

    • 

      For regular Earl Grey in a teabag, this one is pretty good. It isn't overpowering, but it is also not flavorless.

      Good earl grey for the price. I would recommend this tea.

      Exactly what it says on the box. It's Earl Grey tea, and you're going to like it. You probably won't love it, but it's consistently good.

      This tea is nothing special or unique but its also a good straightforward Earl Grey

      If you're looking for just a nice, standard cup of Earl Grey Tea and like the convenience of teabags, this tea is for you!

      An okay Earl Grey for bagged and boxed tea. I like to brew this one strong and add cream.

      Very nice earl grey tea. Strong but not bitter. I prefer having this with milk or creme.

    • 

      This is a traditional go to for an earl grey fix when I don't have any loose leaf earl grey on hand. I enjoy this with some honey and a dash of vanilla almond milk.

    • 

      I would drink this every single day at college. This is probably my favorite brand for earl gray teas, I just have always preferred Bigelow's earl tea to anyone else's
