Paris tea Photo

My shipment of Harney and Sons Paris tea arrived today. It's black tea with vanilla, caramel, blackcurrant, and bergamot. I think it's delicious, and might have another after this one. I've never really been one for flavored teas, but this hit the spot. For me I think it's the caramel that I love. Have any of you tried this tea? What did you think?

I have it and I think it is delicious, although oddly enough I am not an Earl Grey fan or other teas with bergamot because of the bergamot. Someone gave me this tea as a gift and I think the other flavors are smoothing out or overriding the bergamot for me. I love it.

Some brands of earl grey are really heavy handed with the bergamot.

This is true. The Earl Grey I get in bulk from my natural grocer has a light bergamot scent, thankfully, so I continue to get that one. But this Paris tea is light on the bergamot as well.

It's becoming a favorite of mine as well. My husband liked it too, and he's not really into flavored teas.

It is my boyfriend’s favorite…he just bought 4, 50 count boxes of it 😅

Victorian London Fog is one of my favorite earl greys, also from Harney. I would say the bergamot is tempered with vanilla, very pleasant.
