Earl Grey Loose Tea, 3.5 oz (100 g), Twinings

I love Twining Ear Grey, so I ordered this and when I got it I was surprised with the quantity, very little.

There's a reason why it has been around for centuries ...I wish it came with the double bergamot mix

My favorite tea.

Great Tea!! shipped quickly with no problems

Flavor varies from very good to poor depending on how the tea is handled during shipment.

I started drinking Twinings' loose leaf teas in the 1980s when they were more readily available in supermarkets here in the U.S., and had a more old fashioned style tin you had to pry the lid off on top. (I liked those better than this new hinged lid style.)I think Twining's today is more focused on being a supermarket tea for the masses and quality has dipped while blends like Queen Mary and Prince of Wales have been dropped (Prince of Wales was re-added, but Queen Mary was dropped in 2007 and even though there's a Facebook grop trying to get Twining's to bring it back, no luck).My point in all this is that there's nothing exceptional about Twinings, and in fact I prefer their Lady Grey to their Earl Grey.Side by side Earl Grey from a Twinings tin versus a Twining's tea bag may as well be two different teas. The loose leaf tea is better, but it's still mediocre compared to Earl Grey from other more quality (rather than tea for the masses) companies.
