A sample of this arrived with my recent Harney order. I thought I’d give it a go this morning. I’m not a huge Earl Grey fan…I like it, but it’s a case of I like what I like and don’t often branch out. Well, I may have to branch out after drinking half the cup! It actually reminded me of Fruity Pebbles in taste which in this case is not a bad thing. I really used to love Fruity Pebbles when I was little so this brought me back to a more carefree time in my life. That is one thing I love with Harney & Sons teas, they always and I do mean ALWAYS evoke a memory of some kind for me. The Bergamot was a little stronger in this tea, but it was mighty tasty. I did add a hint of sweetener to this one, but not too much so as to take away from the tea. Look out only other earl grey in my cabinet there is a new sheriff coming to town!

Oh yes, I think I just heard my wallet weep from my purse. :) A few friends and I are planning a trip to the shop and possible factory tour in the near future…adding this one to the list!
My fave Earl! And Diamond Jubliee tastes like a milder version of this, with an extra flavor added that does not come across as grapefruit to me, which is a good thing. Two grapefruit haters drank it with me and liked it.
I like EG Supreme better because I can taste the base tea and the bergamot is not too much. Earl Greyer is really good iced I think. :))
I’m feeling like that might be the case. I might have to do a side by side with them soon… perhaps this weekend! I’ve never tried the Earl Greyer Iced, but I will now!!
The general rule is 2 x as much for iced or cold brew teas. I would start with 5-6 grams of loose tea, and adjust according to taste.
This is one of, if not my favorite Earl Grey. :))
Sounds like a winner! Super tasty :3

I really like Earl Greyer from Republic of Teas, but this one may just have topped that!

I used 2 Earl greyer teabags when I iced it using a 10-12 oz mug.
What would that translate to for the loose tea version?
How many ounces is your cup??
Depends anywhere from 6oz to 12oz
