Delightful earl grey blend. Not Lady Gray and not Earl Grey. Just delightful! It’s even a favorite of my 8 year old granddaughter.
My daughter loves this tea and I have been buying it for her for several years. She has tasted many, many Earl Grey teas and she said this one is the best by far. In fact, she refuses to drink any other Earl Grey tea. This is her go to when she wants a tea with caffeine.
I bought this as a Christmas present for my daughter as she loves tea and Downtown Abbey. Since it is a Christmas present, my daughter has not opened it.
we live in constant fear that this will actually become the limited edition it says it is, because it's our daily morning ritual.
Best purchase, wished I’d found it sooner
This company’s teas are my all-time favorites!
I ordered this tea a while back, and it is a favorite in our house. The vanilla flavor adds a smoothness and depth to this tea that is so satisfying.
The Estate Blend of tea arrived on Sept. 28 & was my first to try. It was soothing and pleasant to my tastes. It made me think of a slower and a bit more of a pleasant time. I am very happy that I took the chance to purchase this as well as the other 2 teas I ordered.
This was a surprise when I first made it and now it's my choice for Earl Grey! I've been a user of other Earl Grey's for years but this has something extra - maybe it's the orange flavor? It makes a delicious iced tea as well.
So delicious, tons of flavor. Smells amazing too!
Love the flavor of this tea and I am so pleased with the canister. I had to purchase this because of Maggie Smith.
The best vanilla Earl Grey!
I enjoy Downton Abbey Estate Blend. It's a smooth black tea with a little bit of sweetness. Good on its own or added honey/sugar/sweetener. Wonderful any time of day.
I love the Downton Abbey canister which is the reason for purchasing. However, the quality of the tea is excellent, but I wish they left out the vanilla.
I have been drinking this tea for several years and it is absolutely my favorite. So smooth and warn with the hints of vanilla.
My favorite tea!
Never tire of this gem, and hope Republic of Tea never stops making it. It is my go-to beverage. Smooth, flavorful, comforting and enjoyable, it's the crème de la crème of vanilla-toned Earl Greys.
Awesome blend to sip!
I've purchased several tins of this aromatic tea. As an earl grey lover, the addition of vanilla adds the perfect note.
Lovely aroma and wonderful taste. Very relaxing.
This tea is delicious! My kids love it.
One of the best blend offered - Great service - prompt delivery- reasonably priced. Been a customer for years.
I was gifted this tea blend years ago. I bought more recently. It’s so good that I hoard it for special occasions
Definitely get a mellow bergamot, and the vanilla sweetens it beautifully.
This is ALWAYS my first choice for afternoon tea. I'm a consistent fan of Earl Grey and the hint of vanilla makes it perfect.
So many teas but this is a classic favorite, comforting & so very satisfying!
This is a tasty Earl Grey. I prefer the Bridgerton version though, as it has some lavender notes as well. However, it is a limited edition, so I ordered this one.
Out of all the Downtown teas this one is my favorite. A wonderful combination of Earl Grey, orange and vanilla flavors.
Lovely morning tea, Earl Grey with vanilla.
This is my favorite tea of all time. Bergamont and Vanilla go so well together.
I’ve been drinking this tea for a long time now. Absolutely one of my favorites!!
This is my favorite morning tea! The hint of vanilla flavor is perfect!
This is my favorite tea, the vanilla is subtle and balanced the bergamot perfectly.
This tea is such a delicious and fancy earl grey! Tastes great with some warm almond milk and honey! Of course a few little cookies makes the perfect treat!
We had this by chance at a friends house a few years ago and have kept it in the house regularly since!
I really liked this tea, it is a smooth blend with great flavor!
This tea is a simple, perfect earl grey; the vanilla adds the perfect amount of pizazz without being too complex. On top of that, the packaging makes ya feel fancy fancy. Beautiful. Thank you RoT.
I'm devastated that this tea is limited edition. It is so delightful. The vanilla and bergamot smell amazing together. I like to enjoy a cuppa with a splash of cream for an afternoon reset.
I love the show and love this tea even more! It's got such a pleasant taste!
I ordered this tea after ordering the Downton Abbey Mrs. Patmore and Daisy blend. This was definitely a high tea blend but excellent for just a refreshing sip of something during any part of the day.
This is my mom's tea and she loves it
I enjoy my tea
My daughter is a huge Downton Abbey fan. I buy all the DA teas for her. She loves each and every one.
Sometimes I splurge at a coffee shop (London Fog Latte is my go-to) — but after buying this tea I no longer need to pay way too much for a latte. The Earl Grey and vanilla flavors are exactly right, and as always the tea is high quality. It's my new "splurge"!
As soon as I opened the box I could smell that this tea was next level! I ordered 3 cans, this Bridgerton with Vanilla and Lavender, the Downton Abney with vanilla and Grandmama sitting in the garden. And I ordered the hicaf with coconut! All 3 are exceptional!! When you open each can the flavor is strong and it smells like quality product. I've drank tea all my life, I don't drink coffee or soda. And this tea is fabulous! The hicaf, is definitely THAT, highly caffeinated, but I didn't get the hitters or feel awkward. The black teas are also pretty caffeinated, which o was grateful for!! My order got stuck on mainland with FedEx and I called Republic and they were amazingly nice, they looked into it and didn't hesitate to offer to send me my order again with 2 day shipping, which to Hawaii cost a pretty penny. Their customer service is as quality as their tea!!
I was digging through my tea stash and decided to give this one a try. Holy moly! SO GOOD. Please don't ever stop making this perfect Earl Grey/Vanilla combo! So smooth and delicious hot with milk & honey! Just ordered more.
This is one of my favorite teas.
Any tea that has earned the seal of approval from the redoubtable Dowager Countess of Grantham—aka, Lady Violet Crawley—as well as that of the downtrodden demon of Downton, Vera Bates, must indeed be something special! Dedicated viewers of the beloved series will recall the first Mrs. Bates' most unexpected—and unwelcome—arrival at the Abbey that saw her being served tea at Mrs. Hughes' behest. Despite Vera's decidedly difficult and nasty nature, the Lord's estate blend put a smile on her snarling lips as she relished in the luxurious taste experience accorded by that superior sipper. (Could this be the very tea to which she purred her gracious compliments?) Featuring the historical and exquisite Earl Grey as a base with a moreish mix of traditional bergamot-orange oil and sweet, smooth, satisfying vanilla to enhance its famous flavor, this bold and beautiful brew elevates teatime to an event which one need not be born-to-the-manor to enjoy! With its warm, inviting aroma and rich, creamy flavor, R of T's Downtown Abbey Estate Blend makes everyone feel like an aristocrat! (Even evil Vera!!!!)
I enjoy it best piping hot with a splash of pre-warmed skim milk - I could enjoy it more however it was available in bulk packaging rather than purchasing the tin over and over again!
I've converted from coffee to drinking tea before my nursing shifts start in the morning. Tea is my breakfast on the way to work with vanilla creamer - yum. There is something a little special about this tea compared to the regular earl grey from ROT. I'm on my second tin and will most likely order a refill when I run out.
The aroma of this tea is divine, as is the flavor. Highly recommend!
The only thing that would make it better is if they also had it in decaffeinated.
I have and enjoy most if he other Downton Abbey teas, but this tea is a newer experience. It reminds me of "Earl Greyer vanilla," but there is something slighter different in the flavor mix. Regardless, this has become a definite favorite of ours, hot with milk or milk-free and iced. Either way it calms my day.
I was not an Earl Gray fan until I had this!! My afternoon go-to!
This has become the tea with which I start my day; that touch of vanilla elevates my morning cup.
I love any version of Earl Grey but this one is really delicious! Worth every penny!
The added touch of vanilla makes this tea a bit more indulgent than the usual Earl Grey. Its almost like the milk has already been added.
Unique flavor. Good tea.
Definitely liked the Earl Greyer better. I think that I am not loving the vanilla in this, but still a solid tea.
Earl Grey has always been one of my favorite teas (and particularly the Earl Greyer from TRoT), so when I came across this one I was ecstatic. Not only is if from a company whose Earl Grey is one of the best, but It has the LEGENDARY Dame Maggie Smith on it. I had to have it! I was however disappointed when I made myself my first cup as it tasted surprisingly soapy. As this had never happened before with a tea I chalked it up to a bad dish washing job and decided to try again with a new cup, only to find that that cup as well tasted soapy. After this I decided to have some of my friends try it just to make sure it wasn't just me, and they agreed it tasted strange. I'm not sure if this was just a bad batch or if its how the tea is supposed to taste, but I think I'll just stick to the regular Earl Greyer.
I received this tea as a gift. The vanilla just wasn't great for me. It's a good quality tea, I just didn't like the flavor
This is one of my favorite teas. An excellent blend of black tea and vanilla.
This consistently makes a GREAT cup of tea. The vanilla and bergamot blend beautifully to give a rich, satisfying tea time. Aroma, flavor, even aftertaste--they all are wonderful.
This Earl Gray is my favorite morning tea. I usually have 2 cups every morning! It has a lovely unique taste and I am absolutely addicted to it. Please don't stop producing it!
Delicious tea! Has the same ingredients as Earl Greyer Vanilla, but with a slightly more pronounced blackberry flavor. Add a touch of cream and you are ready for your afternoon.
I've been drinking Earl Grey for over 30 years and this is by far the most enjoyable cup of tea I've had in many many years! Thank you for providing such a delicious alternative to a regular cup of black tea Earl Grey.
I love this black tea, it's not over powering and has a nice subtle flavor for English breakfast. It's a great tea first thing in the morning and quite lovely with some milk.
This is THE BEST vanilla earl grey tea I have ever had hands down. It's a shame it's only available at Cost Plus if you want to get it at a store. Such an aromatic tea but the flavor is not overwhelming, and it's a perfect cup of a black tea in the morning if you want to skip your coffee or are just a regular tea lover. Highly recommended!
As in Perfect? That's sure what it feels (and tastes) like to me. Confession time: my teas of choice are Earl Grey and Vanilla. This blends the two in the best possible way. I'm grateful it exists. Just sniffing it makes me smile. Thanks Republic of Tea. You know how to make this sip-stress happy.
Earl Grey is one my favorite tea flavors. I was not sure if I would like vanilla with Earl Grey and I don't. This is my least favorite tea of the all. I will eventually finish it and will not repeat an order.
This tea is truly one of my favorites. I don't like to add sweetener to my tea so the touch of vanilla in this one is just enough to add some extra smoothness and flavor without being sweet. I've repurchased it many times.
My mom loves Downton and earl grey. I bought this for her when it first came out and she loves it! Every mothers day/birthday/Christmas, she is giving me the "you are getting me more' wink. She let me try it once and it was delicious!
Earl Grey is my favorite tea flavor. I was not sure if I would like vanilla with Earl Grey, but what a treat! It has the best citrusy vanilla aroma. I have become more sensitive to caffeine over the past few years, so I hope it comes out as a decaf version. I've tried adding vanilla to decaf Earl Grey, but it's nowhere near as good as this.
My absolute favorite tea! I'm currently having a cuppa on this rainy autumn day, and it's a perfect combination of warmth and comfort. Thank you for this divine blend!
This is now my absolutely FAVE tea - I wish they could make it into an essential oil so I could infuse my whole house with the wonderful aroma.
I would love it if it could buy refills as I really enjoy this tea
This is my breakfast tea. I have it every morning, 365 days a year with my English Muffin and tart cherry jam. The subtle vanilla flavor is divine. I've been enjoying this tea for years.
The flavor of this Earl Grey is very rich and delicious. I find it brews rather strong at the recommended time so I brew it for one minute less.
The Republic of Tea is top-notch! They are so dependable and their products are priced better than anywhere else I have tried. The Downtown Abbey line is superb! I am a member of their Loyal Citizen program and appreciate the rewards I get from that. Total fan!!!!
I don't care too much for earl grey by itself but with vanilla I am into it. I bought a few teas to try and I think this one of my favorite. I would purchase again. Typically anything vanilla catches my attention and tastebuds. Hope this tea sticks around.
I ordered this tea aling with three other blends in the Downton Abbey series. I love Earl Grey tea and was expecting Republic of Tea to create a winning blend of this well-known favorite. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. The vanilla is extremely overpowering and I tasted no hint of oil of bergamot. I tried very hard to find this version of Earl Grey acceptable to drink but could not. It is the very first RoT blend I've ever not thoroughly loved!! Bummer...
I absolutely LOVE this tea! This is the second time I've purchased it! I love sharing it with friends!
Bought this for my MIL as a Mother's Day gift, which was perfect timing with the release of the latest movie. She's a big fan of classic teas, so this was a nice treat for her veering just slightly out of her comfort zone. She loves it.
Well now I know that I don't like vanilla in my tea. Thanks
This tea has a lovely fragrance and taste. It's a favorite.
Quality, taste, freshness are the first things that come to my mind when I think of Republic of Tea teas.
I first purchased the Estate Blend when I saw it announced in the mail in catalogue. It has become a daily staple since then! (I recommend and buy it for everyone!) I love the fragrance and taste, and it has such a lovely aftertaste with just a hint of vanilla. I lost my sense of smell with Covid, and everything tastes but odd since, BUT NOT THIS TEA! I hope that the Republic of Tea will carry and offer it for years to come. My only complaint, that it doesn't come in a giant bag. (Though I do up-cycle the tins.) Fun fact, I received the email to review this tea as I was drinking it, so I felt inspired to write how much I LOVE it. 10/10 would recommend.
I had had the tea previously but could not remember where I bought it. so searched on-line and found it here. Quick delivery
This is my favorite Earl Grey tea and one of my favorite teas ever! I am so glad they have continued to make the Downton Teas and I hope they do not stop; I would be devastated. It is so smooth and the vanilla balances so nicely. I was rationing myself before, but now that I know they still sell this, it will be back to being my everyday tea.
This is a very delicious twist on Earl gray. The vanilla adds really good flavor. Will buy again!
I bought all of the Downton tins and love all the yeas except the two that have been flavored with vanilla. The vanilla has a slight chemical taste and is, too prominent in this one and the Mrs. Patmore's Pudding Tea.
This is not my favorite but close. My absolute favorite tea is in the Downton collection. Mrs Patmore's pudding Tea. Delicious! I have at least 2 to 3 cups a day.
One of my favorite blends of Earl Grey! This blend is really good and honestly I think better than the other Earl Greyer the Republic of Tea sells. I do wish they had more blends in general of Earl Grey but either way...this one is FANTASTIC. I refill it every time I'm out. It's great alone, with honey, with honey & milk.
The vanilla adds a nice touch-it makes the earl grey more interesting.
Just the right blend of earl grey and vanilla
This a a perfect daily tea with a hint of vanilla
She was right. I would never have tried this without her recomnendation! It is so good that I would order bulk if available!!🤔
This is my favorite tea. The flavor is unique! I absolutely love it!
Every time I open the tea tin I love inhaling the mild citrus smell. Been buying this particular tea since you first offered it. Perky, smooth and so nice to drink. Before I enjoy my first sip I always add milk and Splenda to it.
My all-time favorite.
I discovered this tea at a local tea house and wasn't expecting to be so impressed by an Earl Grey! I immediately purchased some for myself and was disappointed to hear that, as a limited edition, it was going to be discontinued. I sincerely hope not! I will certainly continue to purchase it for as long as it is available.
While I knew I liked Earl Grey, this tea here made it a staple tea to have in the house for me. I've bought it so many times and I find ir simply delicious! Plus, I find the tins for this Downtown Abbey series so delightfully charming and its the little things that can cheer you up sometimes!
Wonderful taste. Ran out and I need to order more. Purchased originally on Downton tour!!!
My absolute favorite tea! A wonderful blend! Earl Grey is my go-to, but the touch of vanilla only makes it better! I will definitely be ordering more!!
wasn't sure how I would like this flavor mix, but was very pleasantly surprised.
This is one of my favorite teas. It has a beautiful flavor and tastes great when made into a latte. It is one of the teas I always make sure to have a supply of.
This is by far my favorite Earl Grey blend. The vanilla makes all the difference. I only wish refills were available, to cut down on the accumulation of tins.
Love the richness of this tea. I have it every morning.
It smelled awesome when I opened the container. I bought it because I had purchased one of the other Downton Abbey teas by The Republic of Tea, The Bates Tea and fell in Love. From the first sip to the last it made me happy. The only thing I don't like is that most of the teas are a "limited item". I want to be able to enjoy this tea whenever I would like. .
I tried this on a whim because I love DA and wanted to pretend I was having tea with the Crawley's. So silly but fun when you get out your fancy tea set and crumpets with your 8 year old daughter. I am hooked on this and just bought more and sent a can to my friend. Please keep making this one! Cheers.
I love tea. Chai teas were my fav but my daughter gifted me the Estate blend and it has become my fav. Ordered 2 canisters since I drink it all the time. Probably should have ordered more. Please do not discontinue!
Earl Gray is my favorite sipping tea and this one is the bomb! The added vanilla is amazing! If you like EG you must try!
This tea is wonderful. It even smells like there is a hint of chocolate in it. When my tea-drinking friend comes to visit, we must have a cup of this tea. She normally does not like bergamont, but she loves it in this tea.
I ordered several varieties of these limited edition teas to celebrate the Downton Abbey movie and as Christmas gifts for some of my friends who love Downton Abbey - a tin or two of tea with a beautiful teacup or teapot! I have the Estate Blend teabags (Earl Grey with vanilla), which is delicious, as I would expect from the Republic of Tea. My only disappointment is the tin itself - the Downton Abbey artwork is quite small and unimpressive. I thought the tin would be a pretty keepsake after the tea is gone - but they're just not as nice as other tins I've purchased as "souvenirs." Still - as a limited edition - they're a special treat.
LOVE IT!!! Definitely one of our all time favorites. I'm enjoying a cup as I type now. Rich, tasty, full-bodied tea. This tea is on my reorder list.
I've been trying all of the Downton Abbey teas, and honestly have loved them., BUT this one is my FAVORITE so far!! First, the smell out of the tin is so comforting! The smell and flavor once brewed is TO DIE FOR! Subtle sweetness, perfect Earl Gray and Vanilla flavors. Add a splash of milk or cream and it's even better!! I'm ordering several tins of this for fear it will be discontinued!!!
I was trying some other DA teas and thought I would try this as well. I like earl grey teas but they can be too perfumey and overpoweringly floral (or something?) for me. This is one of the best I have had. The vanilla softens the earl grey I guess. I like it with a splash of milk.
Very satisfying taste, beautiful aroma. Well pleased.
I am really not big on flavored black tea, but this was surprising wonderful. The flavors go together well, providing a comforting, warm, homey feeling. This has become one of my favorite teas!
Just the right amount of Bergamot/Vanilla blend!! Very smooth tea!
The aroma when you open the tin is soothing and calming. The flavor is so smooth and refreshing. I LOVE THIS TEA!!
This is my favorite tea to have at breakfast!! I add a honey straw just to make it a little extra. Best way to start the day! Please never stop carrying this tea!!!
I bought this at the recommendation of my sister in California. I'm generally not a fan of Earl Grey, but the estate blend which is Earl Grey with vanilla is very very good. It's my fav of all the teas from The Republic of Tea
I am an avid drinker of earl grey and my favorite is earl grey with orange bergamot. This Downton Abbey estate blend introduced me to earl grey with vanilla which is delicious. The vanilla mellows the bold black tea and makes for a very pleasant drinking experience. I loved the show and when I saw that the tea was an earl grey it made for a fun option with a nod to the show. I'm so glad I gave it a try. It has also become the gateway to me purchasing republic of tea through the website. I've already ordered a second tin of this tea to keep at work. I expect to expand my republic of tea options soon as the rewards program fills up fast and that makes the tea far more economical when I'm getting a free tin every few purchases.
I've already written a 17-thumbs up review of this particular blend, but I'm happy to convince all readers to try this marvelous flavor combination. I ordered more because I noticed the supply was running dangerously low and knew I wasn't drinking it (I do have other favorites). So I spoke to my daughter-in-law who, along with my son, recently moved in. SHE: It's the best tea EVER ME: I agree. We're running out. SHE: Noooo! Order ALL of it. I'll pay half. If we run out, I'm locking myself in the washing machine because mornings will be filled with despair and doom. So I ordered more, because we need the washing machine! Also, because I don't want the Minister in Charge of Tea Blends to stop manufacturing this masterly combo of Earl Grey and vanilla.
This tea has become my absolute favorite. Before this Cuppa Cake Caramel Vanilla was my favorite - still love it but Estate Blend is just sooo good. I love vanilla - here are some of the other teas I like - for comparison. Good Hope Vanilla, Comfort and Joy, Cuppa Cake Caramel Vanilla, Honey Ginseng, Downton Butlers Pantry Blend, and Peppermint Bark are all at the top of my ROT list... but Estate Blend wins!!
Well, I just found out that my store were I purchase this wonderful tea, will no longer carry it. How sad, sooo, please don't discontinue it's the only reason I drink!!! Every day, all day long! I have bought 50 Tom's of this in the last few years!!!
At first, I didn't know if this tea was for me. After I brewed it properly and a few cups, I most definitely find this tea wonderful. I especially like the sweet undertones of the brew.
We used this and the Holiday Tea for a Ladies Victorian Tea and both were a HIT! I am still getting compliments on them both. I took both to work to share with friends and they are looking forward to becoming new customers.
Not a great fan of Downton, but definitely like the Estate blend. While fantastic drinking hot in the morning, I have also used it to flavor cakes, scones, tapioca pudding and homemade ice cream custards. Delish!
This is the tea that turned me into a tea drinker. It's absolutely delicious and my all-time favorite blend.
This is my all-time favorite tea! I love Earl Grey, and the vanilla is the perfect addition! Since this is limited-edition, I try to stock up, but I'm going to be so sad when it goes away :(
The rich warm fragrance rises up to great you and as you sip the velvet richness spreads across your tongue. This is not a tea to drink in a rush but with a good book beside a fireplace on a rainy day. Please do not phase this flavor out for a long long time.
OMG-- this is my new favorite tea! I love Earl Grey tea, and this blend with the vanilla is just heavenly! It smells great and tastes even better!! I already have 4 cans and am ordering more-- please don't discontinue it!!
As a Christmas gift I got a selection of the Abby teas and trying them I fell in love with the the Estate Blend was my favorite. The warm aroma is almost good enough to skip desert. If you ever have to give up the Abby connection I hope you keep the blend.
Perfect earl grey to start my day softened by sweetness of vanilla. Love all the Downton Abbey Teas I've tried thus far please keep this in stock!
I love Earl Grey, but this is over the top delicious! I hope this tea is never discontinued.
Earl Grey has always been my tea of choice. No longer! The estate blend is so smooth that it almost feels decadent in the morning. Great way to start my day.
This tea is simply divine! It pairs beautifully with a bit of sweet cream and leaves you in warm vanilla bliss. You won't be disappointed!
I must confess, I initially ordered this tea simply because it had Dame Maggie Smith on the tin. I am a very big fan. The tea itself is a good earl grey, nothing extraordinary, but the orange does come through nicely. I'm a big fan of milk and sugar, and the splash of milk takes away any bitterness. This is a good basic early grey for your breakfast/caffeine needs.
When my daughter bought season 6 on DVD, PBS included a sampler of the Downton tea collections. I've been buying it regularly since. It smells heavenly, without being overpowering. It tastes even better. It's the ideal blend of quality black tea and bergamot and vanilla. It's a nice pick-me-up in the afternoon.
This is a fabulous Earl Grey. Perfect balance of black tea, hint of lemon and a nice touch - a mellow background of vanilla. Great on it's own or with a touch of honey and splash of milk.
A smooth and delicious blend of two favourite flavours. Wonderful with milk and sugar. Tasty as an every day drink, but more than refined enough to be worthy of the Downton name. It is kind of odd that of the teas I've purchased, this is the one I've been prompted to review, as it is a limited edition. I hope they add this or something like it to the permanent roster. Earl Grey Creme is one of my favourite tea flavours, but every time I find one I like it either becomes unavailable or the recipe is changed. I hope Republic of Tea helps me out with this problem!
This is my new favorite. It is so smooth and lovely to start my mornings.
It's delicious tea! Has a special delicate flavor. I recommend it highly for a special touch for a ladies tea.
I bought this to complete my Downton Abbey collection, but since I am not an Earl Grey fan, I didn't think I'd really like it. But I do! For me, Earl Grey usually has a strange after taste, but this tea doesn't have that. It has the flavor, but milder. I am pleasantly surprised that I liked it. I drink it as cold brewed iced tea. Maybe that adds to the mildness. I will actually drink it, not just enjoy the can on my shelf.
I don't like earl grey OR vanilla teas but this tea is AMAZING! I drink it every day (sometimes multiple times a day) and always have a back up can for when I run out. I'd hate to see this leave (it's a limited edition) and hope you keep it around!
A vanilla Earl Grey? You bet. This one is a winner. I've switched to almost exclusively Earl Grey blends and am most impressed by this one. Both flavors are strong and blend well together. I like it so much that, when I'm drinking a cup, I'm already wondering when I can have my next cup.
This tea was especially made for Cost Plus World Market and may be purchased directly from them online at WorldMarket.com ... hope this helps those who have been trying to find it in their local store.
I purchased this for my mother as a Christmass present. I am a sucker for anything with Vanilla involved, it is the finest of the flavors. I must admit impressed with how well the black tea with strong bergamot worked with the vanilla. I will be back to the world market for more and recoment they offer this one online as sejusted.
would like to see this as an online choice of teas. Have no idea where a Cost Plus is anywhere near where I live. Please please put online. Thank you
This is my current favorite tea. I like to brew a pot in the morning and add milk. In the morning I drink it hot, then refrigerate the rest of the pot and have it cold in the afternoon. To me there combination of bergamont and vanilla is perfectly matched in this black tea. My only complaint is that it seams that Cost Plus has already run out and you cannot find it online either. Please consider adding this to your regular tea line.
A wonderful tea for anytime!. You can also get it online if a store is not near at : http://www.worldmarket.com/product/the-republic-of-tea-downton-abbey-estate-blend-tea-tin.do?&refType=&from=Search
We don't have a local store within a hundred miles. Would like to be able to buy this on the internet.
This tea is delicious but I felt like it had a little too much vanilla for my taste. I added a little milk and sugar and it was better, but it's still not something I would drink every day.
This is the only version of Earl Grey I like. I wish it was available on this website. World Market is not someplace I get to often. The tea has a fabulous flavor to it. I compared the description of it to other Earl Grey teas. I assume the vanilla in it is what makes me like this despite having not liked earl grey teas in the past. It quickly became one of my favorites up until I realized I could not order refills. UGH. I am still rating it 5 stars and not lower because the reviews are meant to be for the tea itself not complaints over exclusive selling rights given to another store.
This is an excellent tea for morning or an afternoon pickup; love the bergamot orange / vanilla. I do wish you'd offer refills for the tin, which I did manage to get by going on an expedition to another Cost Plus across the bay... maybe Cost Plus could offer refills like you have for your other teas here? I bought a couple of refills for my other favorites here, like the idea.
Love this tea --- just a hint of almond -- delicious. It was given to me as a gift for Christmas and I am hooked. Now my problem is finding it at World Market. My local store is sold out!
This is my favorite Tea! I can't get enough of it and it is sold out at World Market. I hope that they will re-stock or that Republic of Tea will at some point carry this Tea on-line. It is positively divine!
Simply open this can, take a big sniff of this tea and you will know how delicious it is! This is a twist on a classic tea... The touch of vanilla is an added treat. We received this as a gift and thoroughly enjoy each sip!
I'm not a routine tea drinker but we were having a really cold spell(20 degrees for a high),and tea just was sounding good. This blend is wonderful-the orange and vanilla notes on top of the Earl Grey made it absolutely lyrical. Put a little milk in it,English-style,and you just can't stop drinking it!
