I’ve been trying for several tastings to figure out if this one is my favorite Earl Grey, but it seems I have run out of the other one. So for now I will call this a very serious contender!
What draws me to this one is the tea, with a bit of lemony zest from the added bergamot. So I’m enjoying it more for the tea than as an Earl Grey, which is unfortunate because it could be more “Earl Greyish” and might seem lacking to some. The tea has a bit of a lightly spicy earthiness to it which I find pairs well with the lemony touch.
Overall the whole thing is a hint on the mellow side, so again perhaps not what some Earl Grey seekers are after. But I really enjoy it.
Now the question is whether to order more of that other one.

I am not an Earl Grey lover, preferring my bergamot on a Keemun base, but this is my favorite Earl from Harney. You may want to try Diamond Jubilee if you like this one.
Thanks, I was considering another Harney order and will definitely get some of that.
I tend to prefer lighter Earl Greys as well! There’s really a wide range when it comes to the amount of bergamot added.
