"The vanilla and oil of bergamot aromas interact, either chemically or "olfactorally" to produc a result that I find not so good as Earl Grey with extra bergamot.." Andras

"Unbelievable value. This tea tastes just like a lemon wafer cookie. If you like lemon wafers you will enjoy the tea. the base tea is not high end, but adequate. At this price one can use more and brew shorter to prevent any bitterness." Pamela Kung

"Too much vanilla for my taste... not enough tea flavor. A second infusion is actually a little better than the first because the vanilla is more subdued.
The aroma is excellent, but I probably wouldn't buy again." incredulousinBoyntonBeach

"This is a scented, "specialty" tea (not a "pure" tea). My husband sneered at the very thought of a bergamot-vanilla mixture when I ordered it. But I like it! And in fact so does my husband! It's different, has definite charm, and is very well priced." c. machicado

"Having had and loved Earl Grey Creme from Teavana, I was interested in trying something similar from Upton. While this tea smelled heavenly, this tea lacked any real flavor of either Earl Grey or Vanilla." wasim altaf

"Overpowering creme-vanilla scent leaves a barely detectable earl gray aroma. Dry leaves crumble easily to dust. Tea itself is very weak, flat, lacking any liquor and/or flavor. Disappointing. Will try injecting some body by mixing in some CTC."
"The vanilla in this Earl Grey selection blends seamlessly with the bergamot and the base tea, creating a smooth, sweet cup. Even those who would not traditionally reach for an Earl Grey should give this a sample."
"Upton Tea Imports was founded in 1989 with the objective of providing the North American tea drinker with
the finest teas available. We purchase teas from reputable brokers and estates worldwide, dealing only with
sources who are capable of providing top quality teas. We sell directly to the consumer, thus ensuring the
