"I'm finding that I usually prefer the more subtle bergamot (and other) flavorings of Saint Isaac's Blend over Earl Grey. Saint Isaac's flavors are more subdued, complex and well-balanced, and it has a wonderful aroma and taste." anonymous

"I was very unimpressed with the citrus notes and flavor overall. Though I'm not looking for a flavored tea, I was expecting more complexity and highlights. Not recommended" Mr. Tim Burrows

"A fairly mild black tea that is tarted up with some grapefruit and orange flavor. Bergamot is light. There is a little chemically artificial flavor too. Pretty good with sugar and/or with milk, but nothing special. Disappointing iced."
"While I don't usually drink Earl Greys, this selection is an interesting choice. It has lighter bergamot but with other citrus flavors. Tastes good iced, too."
