Tea Leaf Readings

Not Greyer, a let down and too timid April 17, 2013

Ron Jackson

Aurora, IL

I usually drink a from a 20oz cup. my standard go to Earl Grey, provided from a purveyor in Vancouver Canada, I put three bags in the cup. For this tea, I put three bags in the cup and there was barely a taste, certainly not near that of my regular supplier. A cursory examination of the problem yielded a probably explanation. 50 bags of Republic of Tea ($10.50) is labeled as 2.8oz on the tin. 50 bags ($14.50) from the Vancouver Canada purveyor is labeled as 9oz. I think you could do just as well with Twinnings from a local supermarket.

Great flavor April 16, 2013

This tea has a wonderful, subtle flavor. It startled me at first, because it was not what I was expecting. I had not ever had an Earl Grey tea that tasted like this. When I used up the last tea bag, I felt so sad, because I will miss it terribly until I can order up some more.

Earl Gray has been a long time favorite tea. I've meandered through several different brands. Republic of Tea's Earl Grayer is by far the best of the bunch for my taste. It has a strong rich black tea flavor with the sharp citrusy notes that make earl gray so wonderful.

Good but too Strong January 14, 2013

,

I was excited to try this earl greyer because earl grey happens to be a favorite of mine. I personally thought that this was a little too strong in the spices, although I've only had one cup, but it didn't steep for very long. I prefer Twinings Earl Grey to this. I'll be trying to steep for a shorter amount of time.

I love Earl Grey tea. I have had a cup before bed for years. I even taught my children to like Earl Grey tea. Then I found your Earl Greyer! Wow. I now own the huge copper tin and keep it full. Yours is a delicious version that resets the standard!

A lovely tea December 06, 2012

Miss Becca

So California, CA

A nice blend of mellow black tea with bergamot. The orange flavor is in the background as it is meant to be in Earl Grey, while the black is low in tannins. This is a perfect breakfast cup, although I have been known to enjoy a late afternoon cup with a finger or two of scotch - dont knock it until you've tried it!

This one is excellent hot, and makes the best iced tea too. This time of year we are drinking lots of iced tea. Earl Greyer has been a long time favorite of ours. It is great unsweetened and also takes sweetening well. I add lemon to my iced tea, and the flavor is complementary.

This is one of my favorite Earl Grey teas, it rivals some of the Earl Grey teas I've tried in the UK. I am deeply impressed with TROT's service, the tea was shipped quickly, arrived quickly, and I loved the use of old cut-up tea bags as the stuffing. You won't be disappointed with the tea nor the service. Thanks!

"Recognized as the best tasting Earl Grey available." By whom??? Absolute bilge. Bigelow makes a much finer product, but even that brand has disappointed me as the years go by. This tea by the Republic is not worth wasting one's money on--very inferior, to say the least.

My favorite way to have Black Iced Tea! May 15, 2012

Michelle

Bremerton, WA

Starbucks USED to have my favorite black iced tea- but then I tried Earl Greyer Black Tea... It is my favorite! It's aroma tantalizes my tastebuds to a point where I can never have only one glass. My preferred method of making iced tea? -Boil a cup of water -Steep one tea bag -Add desired amount of AGAVE sweetener while it is still hot (I used to use Splenda, but Agave is a natural and perfect pairing to black tea.) -Carefully add the tea to a glass of ice! Yum <3

Absolutely delicious and smooth. The best earl grey I have tried (the decaf is great too). The round bags with the edges sealed all around are great too. Other tea bags tend to come undone and then there is loose tea floating around - not pleasant. The whole product is great.

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE FOR MANY, MANY Years. THE VERY BEST January 15, 2012

Cornelia Wylldestar

Sarasota, FL

I have been a lover of Republic of Tea, Earl Greyer Tea for many years. It has the perfect blend of bergamot. I try Earl Grey teas from many sources - NONE are as excellent as R of T, Earl Greyer. It has a wonderful bouquet; if I can't smell and taste the bergamot then for me, the tea is inferior. In addition to its special begamot flavor, is the beautiful deep amber color. I have at least three POTS of Republic of Tea tea every day, of which at least one is the Earl. Keep up the great work. There have long been tea ceremonies from Asia to England, but the Republic of Tea contributes to the best. Thanks. CW

The enjoyment begins with just opening the canister. Earl Greyer Tea has the best Bergamot aroma. The tea is full bodied, but not too strong. This is a good everyday tea. Also, a great alternative to coffee.

Having been a coffee addict for many years, I decided to take the plunge, give up coffee and try tea instead. The store brands just didn't do it, so I tried the Republic of Tea. Remembering a delightful elderly British professor who always had a pot of Earl Grey on his desk, I gave Earl Greyer a try. Now four years later, it's my main beverage and one that satisfies me beyond belief.

I love Earl Grey tea and I was expecting Earl Greyer to be even better than most, but to be honest, while it is very good, it was a bit weak. I followed the recommended brewing directions for the first cup, then made the second cup stronger, but it still just slightly missed the mark. I will buy it again, but I was hoping for a bit stronger taste.

A balanced, fragrant, civilized tea... September 03, 2011

Laura

West Hartford, CT

When a certain popular TV character would order tea on the show ("Earl Grey, hot..."), he obviously knew a good thing when he tasted it. This tea is wonderful. Balanced, smooth, and fragrant with a gorgeous color. I steep mine a bit longer than most would because I enjoy the deeper flavor. It lends itself to a profound sense of civility and I enjoy it tremendously. Give it a taste and see if you don't come away with an new appreciation of Earl Greyer.

I can remember exactly where I was the first time I tasted this tea back in 1997. This is still the best Earl Grey I have ever had. It is deeply fragrant, delicious with or without milk, a beautiful tea. I've managed to get several dear friends "hooked" on this one over the years!
