Black Earl Grey Loose Leaf Tea, 4 Ounce

I recently tried a local small business’s earl grey and got hooked, but it’s expensive so that’s the treat earl grey now. So I had to find an everyday option - which is this Harney & sons version. And though the other stuff is still the treat stuff, I think I might even like this one better. It’s so flavourful, it has the exact amount of bergamot I was after and the tea is a deep golden brown. Something about that flavour makes me want to guzzle the whole cup! I’ve noticed it’s really important to not let it steep too long - 3-4 mins is perfect, otherwise it gets very bitter and far less enjoyable, and to use just a touch less than you think. I use a ball on a stick infuser from oxo (it’s brilliant) and sweeten with raw honey. This tin holds a fabulous amount of tea. This has been a favourite in our house for 3 weeks and the tin in still half full

Great smooth taste. I'm glad that I can use my food card to get premium tea. You won't waste your money or health on this product.

I was initially going to rate this one star but that was only because I was an idiot and a creature of habit. Normally when I steep my tea using the bags (namely Bigelow), I just leave the bag in for the remaining time I'm drinking my tea and it tastes perfectly fine. So I attempted to do the same thing here with this loose leaf tea and it kept coming out bitter. I turned down the temperature of the water and that didn't help. So I put on my thinking hat (🙄) and did some research. The result of my research is that, ideally, you should boil to 212°F (I went down to 201°F just to play it safe), use 1tsp of tea leafs and steep for 2-4 minutes (I did 2 minutes to play it safe). I followed that and the tea came out perfectly. What I was doing wrong before was I was steeping it for way too long. And my guess with the 1 star reviews for this product is these folks made similar mistakes that I did. I know my review is pointing out the obvious to seasoned tea drinkers, but this review is for the silly geese such as myself. Btw I love that this came in a tin. I love tins. My only qualm is that it's not a decorative enough tin for my tastes. I can't display this tin as artwork later. :( Oh well.

This is a good black tea, but it doesn't taste like Earl Grey tea. Not enough bergamot flavour to my taste.

Finally , after so many years I found the tea that tastes like the tea . So rich flavor. Reminds me of the tea my grandfather used to drink back home 🏠. Will buy more . Need a whole bulk of this . Perfect for spiced chai tea . Buy it . It is the best

Great flavor. really handy. no bags to mess with.

If you love Earl Grey, get this one. Loose leaf is always a treat because you control the intensity, but this lovely tea requires less tea than I get in bags it is so flavorful.

You always know that Harney and Sons teas will be amazing. They are a trusted brand and consistent in their quality. I enjoy Earl Grey, but also like their breakfast tea. I have a Brown Betty teapot and needed loose leaf tea for it. I have used their tea in satchels and it also delicious.

The cost may be slightly higher, but it is the highest quality tea available on the market.

El título menciona en su contenido 50 bolsas de té negro; el producto no viene en bolsitas de té. Mala descripción = mala compra.

I have a teaspoon of this tea with boiling water daily and love the flavour -- it is a bit costly but well worth it!

This is the only Earl Grey tea that brews up strong enough for me without overpowering the bergamot flavour. Delicious! — Stephanie

Love the tea but it's expensive for the quantity.
