Rishi Tea Earl Grey Supreme Organic Black Loose Leaf Tea, Caffeinated, 1lb

I Love This! I saw a suggestion to make the first brew of this tea a little on the weaker side and to keep the steeping time short, so I did. I love Earl Grey tea, this is remarkable. I don't think I've ever had real bergamot oil in my tea. It's so mildly citrus-y and lovely. I added a little honey, and I'm very taken with this tea. I'm on my 3rd steep with the same leaves, and I brewed large 20oz cups. It's wonderful. If you need to be smacked around by the flavor of artificial bergamot to feel like you got the tea you wanted, this isn't for you. If you want to taste what real, natural bergamot is supposed to be, try this. The is a quality tea that I used to have to walk through villages in England to find in tiny little hole-in-the-wall tea shops. Update: brewed it stronger on the first fresh round today. It's sublime. The aroma, the subtle citrus-y floral notes, just a hint of honey to sweeten... I love this tea.

Fantastic tea! I love yunnan tea, and Earl Grey should be made with Chinese black tea anyway. The bergamot is deep and rich, very fine quality, a natural oil and tea high quality, long leaf, well made. This combination is excellent. If you're used to tea blends, like Indian, Sri Lanka, Indonesian, African for your Earl Grey, along with bergamot "flavoring" this may be too intense for you. I recommend using 20% less tea than your usual non Chinese loose leaf blend Earl Grey teas, and then determine how much you prefer going forward. I think this is an exceptional tea, and of high quality. Therefore a good value. I intend to purchase more.

Delicious. Fresh. My new favorite. All Earl Grey teas are not the same! My former favorite, Mighty Leaf Tea, was getting harder and harder to find and more and more expensive. I decided to give Rishi Tea a try. It's reasonably priced but not cheap. The leaves are fresh and the flavor is bright and strong. You don't use as much to make your tea. It has bergamot peels mixed in and the mild orange flavor shines through. It's just what Bergamot should taste like. Oh, I get 2 pots of tea, 4 cups, from 2 tablespoons, then another pot but I let it steep longer and only use 3 cups of water. Yes, I drink a lot of steaming hot tea every day in the winter!

Very nice quality tea. A little more floral than citrusy.

Very good flavor

If you have a loose leaf strainer it is worth opting for the loose leaf form of the tea. Stronger bergamot scent than the bagged version. Nearly out of our first bag and will be buying it this way from now on.

This is the most luxurious Earl Grey I’ve ever tasted, and I drink a lot of tea. It’s incredibly fragrant and the tea itself is very smooth. It’s pricy, but for this level of quality I believe it’s more than worth it. I’m pretty sensitive to caffeine, but this leaves me with zero jitters, which is a plus! High quality ingredients, great brand.

According to Amazon I am on my 19th bag of Earl Grey Supreme from Rishi, and I used to I love it. Something just changed. The bag I just got is the first bag ever where the zipper did not come off immediately, so that was good. The tea is now watery, flat, boring, and tastes sour more like Lemon, not really like Bergamot anymore. The sour tastes lingers around which makes me wonder if the flavoring is even natural. Bottom line, the formulation changed and the quality went way down. Definitely not worth the price anymore. Be aware that most of the positive reviews here are most likely based on a different product. I will have to find another supplier for high quality Earl Grey tea. It's bad, what a pity.

flowery Earl Grey. There are NO cornflowers in this just oil for flavoring. It is very strong, so only use 2/3. I love Fortnum and Mason Earl Grey, which I am setting my standard at.
