Is this tea the same as the Earl Gray in American stores in yellow boxes?

No, it's not. The black and purple box is the U.K. blend, and the yellow box is the blend for the U.S. I contacted Twinings through their U.K. website and they confirmed the blends are different. They said they use different blends for different markets because "Americans don't like" the more flavorful U.K. teas. I, however, DO much prefer the purple box U.K. Earl Grey.

Is this authentic twining brand? what is expiration date?

Hi. This is Twinings from the UK and the date on our current batch at Jan 2018 is Feb 2019. Many thanks

Is each tea bag individually packaged?

Tea bags are packaged in boxes of 100 with two separate sections (airtight) containing 50 bags each.

I am not sure where it is packed but from the description, I think this one is shipped from Britain, which means it does not have the individual packages for each tea bag. The bags come in two wrapped in a foil packages with 50 tea bag in each.
