Twinings Earl Grey Loose Black Tea Tin, 3.53 Ounce Tin (Pack of 1), Flavoured with Citrus and Bergamot, Caffeinated, Enjoy Hot or Iced

My first time ordering Twinings loose tea. It is delicious and seems to be a good quality. Will buy again.

Twinings invented Earl Grey tea and, for me, it's still the best. I've had the curious experience of drinking a tea that was heavy on tannin and yet very low on actual tea flavour--that was awful. I've had the experience of drinking a black tea that had flavour but almost no detectable tannins--that was curiously bland and lacking. Twinings Earl Grey is right in the middle and hits the right balance, for me, of tea flavour and tannin. Not too much tannin and not too little. The black tea flavour is distinct, the bergamot is distinct but not overwhelming, the aroma is delightful. Tea bags can be convenient but I think loose tea brews a fuller bodied cup. Perhaps it is only because I can easily adjust the amount of tea I use to suit the size of my cup so that I don't have to let the tea brew too long to try to get more flavour out of one standard-sized tea bag. Or maybe it really is because the tea leaves like to be able to stretch out and swim around in the pot or mug! Whatever the reason, I'm glad to have the option of buying loose tea.

My favorite tea. Extremely popular for a reason. My only complaint is the last two times it was delivered, the tin had been dented. Maybe handle or ship more carefully.

Good tea.

I'm seeing that Amazon is grouping together the reviews for all Twinings teas, from Orange Pecoe to Earl Grey. This review pertains to the Earl Grey. Earl Grey: So perfect! Twinings has always done an excellent job with its Earl Grey, and this product is no exception. The black tea is strong and rich, and the bergamot is deep and flavorful. The fragrance is magnificent, and the taste is so beautiful that I find myself drinking large cups of this tea daily. I've heard bergamot compared to orange, but its nature is more lemon-like to me--and, somehow, I can't seem to get enough. In addition to the health properties of black tea, bergamot acts to decrease certain cholesterols in the body. The moral of the story: We need Earl Grey in our lives! Loose Leaf: Also exquisite. Twinings has this tea available in bags, but it is far stronger in loose-leaf form. The leaves are large and whole, and they never end up escaping my infuser accidentally. Then, too, the loose-leaf variety goes much, much farther than tea bags, making this an excellent value for comparable or greater strength. My one challenge with this tea is that it is not decaf, whereas Twinings Earl Grey is available in decaf bags. That isn't insurmountable so long as I drink it only throughout the morning hours. Tins: Nothing plasticine about them! I've always felt that plastic, cardboard, etc. are inauthentic. These tins really are rectangular metal structures with a small tea leaf embossed on the top. The foil covering beneath the lid keeps the tea fresh and preserves flavor nicely. Then, too, these tins are excellent storage places for other teas once the Earl Grey is gone. Pack of six: Translation: It's the tea that keeps on giving!--and, trust me, you'll want it that way. Buying in bulk like this is expensive up-front, but so important once you find a tea that you'd like to stick with. Final Recommendation: Make a cup, or two, or ten, of tea. Make many, many London fogs. Make Earl Grey macaroons--yes, they do exist! Whatever you do, you will be thoroughly pleased with this product.

I bought loose leaf tea to use with my Keurig machine; no plastic, tastes better, adjustable measuring, less expensive, and - most important to me - it doesn't explode. Pods are convenient, but the tea is tasteless, and I got fed up wasting costly tea and cleaning the mess from exploding pods. I'm much happier with loose tea. I can make it any strength, and can even use the same spoonfuls twice - a nice savings. I measure out the tea into a mesh filter that fits into my mug or cup. To prevent residue on the bottom of the mug, I shake the filter over the sink a few times before adding water. Let it sit, and by the time my toast is ready, so is my tea. And it tastes like tea, not like hot water! Beats pods every time.

Love this flavor. I just put a punch in my tea with milk and the taste is great 👍

I've recently switched to only using loose-leaf tea, and this is one of my favorites. I feel this is a great value; the taste is smooth and so enjoyable. I love being able to control the strength of the tea.
