I was worried that I’d gotten the wrong tea as I was steeping this — it doesn’t smell a bit like earl grey! Tasting it, I feel much the same way. The base is nice enough (Ceylon, I believe) but the bergamot is only there if you really search for it. Honestly, I don’t mind it that much as I’m not a huge earl grey fan and only picked this up due to the low price, but I wouldn’t really recommend this when you could pick up something more flavorful.
