I always loved Bigelow Earl Grey but the black tea hurt my stomach if I drank more than a cup a day. I should grab a box of this green one next time I see it.

Do so. I have been drinking it ever it was purchased for me by my in-laws. I really like the flavor/aroma and the taste; it all goes hand in hand. I think. Stay well.

I can’t say as I enjoyed this cup but I didn’t dump it down the drain either. It smells like old lady perfume. It’s very pale in taste but what I can taste is the fake bergamot and floral.

green earl grays confuse me beyond almost anything except politics.

When my wonderful girlfriend brought this tea home to me, I was a little skeptical. To me, Earl Grey and black tea were synonymous. The thought of adding bergamot to green tea was like adding fudge sauce to asparagus. However, I was very pleasantly surprised by this little gem. The light tasting bergamot and green tea complement each other perfectly. The taste is enjoyably fascinating. Neither the Earl Grey nor green tea flavor overpower each other but both are definitely present and accounted for. I like to use this tea to chase down my first cup of English Breakfast tea in the morning. I find that steeping this tea for five minutes produces just the right balance of flavor. I drink this and all of my teas straight up. Like all of Bigelow’s tea formulas, there is only a slight (and not unpleasant) aftertaste at the end of the cup.

I love this cheap tea! The green tea is not at all what green tea is supposed to be, but somehow it works. And I don’t think that the bergamot is fake, it just overpowers the base a bit. It’s kind of cheap, stale green tea preserved with bergamot oil, and you know what? It’s perfect! The flavors meld perfectly. I’m going to try Bigelow’s other Earls next.

I’m on my second box, so I enjoy having it available when I need a cup of black/green tea. I was unsure about it at first, so I was pleasantly surpised that I liked it. I don’t use cream or sugar in this tea.

A coworker gave me a bag of this after we had a conversation about green tea. He is drinking lots of green tea lately for the health benefits. I’m not a fan, but I do love Earl Grey so when he found this green tea version he brought some to work for us to try. The bergamot is very fragrant, but I drowned out the flavor with too much honey. I ended up dumping the cup. I would try it again, but I’m still not sure I’d like it.

Oddly enough, I don’t like Earl Grey black. However, this is my favorite green tea. Good with a squeeze of honey.

I can’t taste black tea anymore (due to meds), so it’s nice to find some earl grey green! the bergamot can be a bit overpowering, so I definitely only steep it for 2 minutes; any more and the tea is a little bitter and the bergamot is too strong. otherwise, a nice, cheaper tea – I get it more because of nostalgia than anything else. :)

Very smooth earl grey. Best with cream and sugar, and the green tea gives it a bit of a vanilla-y taste.

Found a great deal on a large green tea variety pack so once again I found another excuse to get pick up more tea.

I’ve always enjoyed Earl Grey teas so I was anxious to try it with green tea. I was concerned both flavors might be compromised when combined but the familiar bergamot bite popped on the very first sip. Yummy!
