Reviews
My favourite
"Just delicious. If you like Earl Grey but want something leaning more towards breakfast tea, this is the one. I just love it."
A good solid Earl Grey
"A good strong Earl grey without have to stew the tea. Love it!"
Hits The Spot Directly
"Really great Earl Grey relaxing vibe. Spot on"
Finally found the perfect Earl Grey!
"An Earl Grey tea with all the body of assam, perfectly balanced with the bergamot!"
Earl grey
"Delightful"
Good tea
"Tastes too much of Earl Grey for "Assam" to be an appropriate name, but still a very nice-tasting tea"
My absolute favourite tea
"I feel like this tea was made for me! Combines the flavours that I love in English breakfast but also has the floral notes that make Earl Gray special. No other tea I have tried has this combination; it's so well balanced. I have this every sunday morning as my treat."
Perfect
"We used to mix our own blend of Assam and earl grey…until we discovered this ready made perfect blend. Saves us buying two separate teas and always running out of one or the other!"
Very good and refreshing tea.
"Very good and refreshing tea. An excellent brew."
