Blender's Notes:
This unique blend takes traditional Earl Grey to the next level by combining the expected bergamot flavoring on full leaf black tea then adding the perfect proportions of other citruses, vanilla, licorice root, and mallow flowers. The result is a captivating aroma and a deep liquor with a well-balanced, smooth, bright, and slightly creamy flavor profile. This tea is for those who like to veer from tradition, explore new ground, and a must for those with fond memories of the orange-creamsicles of childhood. It is perfectly paired with strong cheeses and créme brulee.

Black Tea is known to banish fatigue, stimulate mental powers, and raise energy levels. It has been shown to reduce stress hormone levels and acts as a nerve sedative, frequently relieving headaches. Black tea contains a number of vitamins considered essential for maintaining health, including Carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, has antioxidant and protective properties, Vitamin B1 and Panothenic Acid, Vitamin C and Vitamin B6.
Black Tea also contains antioxidants which may help to protect your body from the ravages of aging and environmental effects. Because they are allowed to ferment completely before drying, most black teas are especially rich in those polyphenols which have been shown to be effective against dementia in aging as well as AIDS related dementia. These compounds penetrate the blood brain barrier and have also been found to reduce blood cholesterol levels.
Black tea is known for its antiviral and antibacterial properties. It can be topically applied to cuts, bruises and burns, and is famous for its sunburn relief and has been shown to have a positive effect on preventing tooth decay and gum disease.

This is the smoothest earl grey I've ever have. I think this is the same as the Earl Grey ala Russe that was at the teaspot store, probably their most popular tea. Best tea on their list.

This is the best earl grey tea I've ever had. It's what hooked me on to The TeaSpot teas. First the tin is super cute. Then you open it and the sweet bouquet of bergamot is heavenly. When it's brewed that aroma translates into a wonderful flavor. Bravo! Once you try this, you'll never be able to drink a teabag earl grey again!

The best, the smoothest, the most interesting Earl Grey ever. My wife brought this home one afternoon and I found quickly I could not possibly live without it. Thanks to Pier 1 for offering this exceptional tea for a while so I could locate The Tea Spot on line. You owe it to yourself to take a sip of this captivating, truly excellent tea. To me, the mallow flower adds the really relaxing tones. Dreamcicle? Maybe.

My mom used to make me drink Lipton Earl Grey at tea time, but this tea bears no resemblance to that watered down drink from my childhood. The TeaSpot’s Earl Grey is robust and flavorful. Two thumbs up.

Wow, I hate to go against the grain here, but I wasn't enamored with this tea. The thing is, I love Earl Grey tea, and this just departed with tradition too much. It's good tea, but Earl Grey it really isn't. A bit more like Orange Peko if you ask me.
