I love earl gray tea and love this version. It’s much more refreshing, especially if you don’t like the vanilla tones of some versions like me.
I drank this tea when visiting Finland. I could not find it in the US...until now when in a few days it was shipped to me! Fast! Excellent taste—I’m loving it!
I love this tea! It has been very hard for me to find until now. The blend is well balanced and smooth. I frequently add a dash of chai mix to it for a little surprise.
Pleasant tasting, but the orange peel and lemongrass make it an unusual take on an Earl Grey tea. Like other reviewers, it took me a couple of cups to decide whether I liked it or not. I still prefer other versions of Earl Grey such as Moonlight (Cream of Earl Grey) and Milady Grey, but the Russian Earl Grey is an interesting cuppa if you are looking for something different.
I've had a lot of Russian Earl Grey in Europe and imported at great expense. Unfortunately, this has an odd minty taste and lacks the expected citrus. Very disappointed.

I’ve had a pretty bad experience with all of tealyras earl grey, they aren’t smooth, they make your mouth feel grabby and dry, and this earl grey “Russian earl grey” has an terrible toxic, puke, chemical, death, smell and it didn’t even have much taste since that smell took over. I think these teas have been in warehouse for way too long, not fresh. Don’t recommend buying this.
