For years I loved the smell but not the taste of Bergamot. I recently decided to retest this conclusion. Before even tasting these teas I spent an evening just opening each package and inhaling its unique blend. While the original, decaf, and Buckingham Palace were all good; the Lavender, Russian and Cream of Earl were far superior selection. The Lavender is like a cup of relaxation with each calming sniff, a real moment to savor. The Cream of Earl is just that, a more lush and sophisticated, smooth flavor. For those of you who are lactose free, no worries, there's no actual cream in it. The Russian blend has an extremely earthy scent in the bag (dried orange peels) that turns in to a delightful citrus note in the brewed tea. While I recommend getting the sampler for the full experience, if you tend towards frugality don't miss the Cream of Earl Grey, Lavender and Russian.

I ordered this as a gift for a family member who lives in Kentucky and was able to have it shipped directly to them.
Thank you
