Earl Grey Cream Tea - Loose Leaf

Earl Grey Cream, my very all-time favorite!

I discovered a version of this blend back in the 90's at a fancy then new tea house on posh Newbury St in Boston. It was love at first sip! Eventually business folded and it took me a while to discover another supplier. Not long ago I discovered this version from ETS and am delighted to say it is the best one I ever tasted, and I'm always buying it from them. Rich flavor that goes down like velvet. Irresistible!

Bad Flavor. Bad Packaging?

I placed my first order (Earl Grey Cream Tea, Loose) and received the tea promptly. I have been using loose Earl Grey for years and brewed it properly. The tea smelled badly and had an awful flavor. I did wonder if the unlined, clear plastic packaging contributed to the poor taste, since it seems like most teas, even grocery store tea bags, come in lined packaging (ie Bigelow). I immediately emailed a complaint but never got any response (it’s now several weeks later).

Absolutely Perfect Balance of Bergamot and Cream

As an Earl Grey fan, this loose-leaf cream version has completely blown me away.
