 A delightful Earl GreyJul 22, 2009
By Diana

This one tastes exactly as an Earl Grey should. Medium body, flavorful: the black tea is perfectly balanced with hints of the bergamot & jasmine. The bergamot is non-intrusive (I say this because sometimes tea makers go overboard with it) yet still there, subtle in the background; the jasmine makes the aroma very appealing. It has an almost sweet aftertaste.
Make sure to use boiling water since it's a black tea and don't oversteep, or it'll get bitter. (Take the teabag out of your cup after about 2-4 min. depending on how you like it, but no longer.) Suggested brew time is 4 min. I like 2-3 min since it's a fast-steeping tea. You can prime the leaves for steeping by pouring hot water over the bag in the cup first and then immediately throwing that water out. This will allow some water to soak into the leaves and help them start to release their oils & aroma (also known as "Chinese rinsing," this gets out some of the caffeine). Or, if you you like a darker brew you could just shake the bag up and down in your cup in the first few seconds so all the surface of the leaves have contact with water. Whichever.

Wonderful Earl GreyFeb 23, 2010
By Jess

Earl Grey has always been my favorite flavor of tea and the Mighty Leaf company has perfected it. I can't get enough of it. It tastes just like Earl Grey should. It isn't too powerful and the flavors combine in a fantastic way. I am so impressed with the Mighty Leaf tea company. I could not have been happier with my choice of tea. Thanks Mighty Leaf!

The best pouch tea!May 03, 2007
By 32 y.o. F
This is the best tea! It's basically loose tea in a nylon pouch (instead of paper). It steeps really well. Great quality, great flavor. One pouch will make about 2 1/2 cups (perfect for steeping in a little teapot!). Am looking forward to all the varieties.
Long Lasting Tea Bags - One Makes At Least 3 Cups of Strong TeaMar 03, 2012

Having been a Lipton drinker for years, I thought Tazo set the standard for sophisticated teas; then along comes the Mighty Leaf. And it is mighty indeed! Unlike Lipton or Tazo, I find that my second or third cup of tea using the same Mighty Leaf bag tastes almost as strong or as flavorful as the first! I've never had that experience before. Even Tazo teabags lose their flavor if you use it a second time. The taste is rich and smooth and you don't even need to add lemon. I first had this at a four star restaurant after a big meal and it was the perfect accompaniment to my creme brulee. I knew I had to buy it after that. It may be a little pricey but you do get what you pay for.

By pretzel_slinger
i can kinda smell the bergamont, but i don't taste it at all. its a let down for earl grey lovers, but its still a nice black tea.
