Twinings Earl Grey Loose Black Tea Tins, Pack of 6, 3.53 Ounce Tins, Flavoured with Citrus and Bergamot, Caffeinated

Our fav for years!

Je viens de jeter aux ordures(compost) mes six boîtes de thé Earl Grey que je viens de recevoir. Totalement imbuvable ! Goût âcre et très chimique sans comparaison avec le goût de bergamote que j’aimais tant de ce thé Twinings que je consommais depuis 50 ans ! Sans avoir la possibilité de retourner ce produit infecte !!! Gaspillez pas votre argent !!!

Apparently, buying 6-packs of the 3.53 oz is the cheapest per ounce. Going with the 7 oz tins results in a higher price per ounce, probably because of the sales volume of the smaller size. Some people complained when Twinings reformulated their Earl Grey back around 2011. I spent my teen years in the UK and fondly recall this as my favorite tea. I like the new blend even better, having a stronger bergamot flavor. I find this makes for a more refreshing and invigorating cup of tea due to the stimulating effects of the terpenes found in bergamot. With a Royal Appointment going back a couple centuries, you can never go wrong with Twinings. The Queen herself starts every day with a cup of this blend and, don't forget, Earl Grey was the beverage of choice for Captain Jean Luc Picard, as well as a favorite of Patrick Stewart. The company is finally working on their ethics as well and, while they are a bit late to the game, I believe, in time, the ethical questions about their trade and labor practices will go away. As a consumer, I am willing to accept the increase in price that comes with ethical production standards.

Love Twinings, its always fresh and full of flavour
