I have had many different brands or Earl Grey tea and Tesco has the finest. Unfortunately it can't be bought here in the States, but the taste is truly a relaxing sensation, along with the "nose" of the tea. This is truly what Earl Grey tea is supposed to taste like. (read more)

This is the first time I have ever encountered a truly awful product in the Tesco Finest range. There is something profoundly wrong with the specification of this product. It produces a black tea without almost no hint of bergamot. The other 49 bags went straight in the bin. This product should be withdrawn. (read more)

I think Tesco Finest Earl Grey is truly awful, it's like drinking a cup of strong black tea. The only reason it got 1 point from me was that it still tastes like tea, albeit the wrong type. Overpowering tea flavour, wrong mixture of teas to bring out bergamot, next to no bergamot. (read more)

I went looking for a cheap earl grey tea for my at Tesco when we were visiting London last month. I brought back the Tesco earl grey, and she loved it. We brought about 35 tea bags home to the US, and she just used up the last of it yesterday. Can't buy this tea here. Sadness. (read more)

I agree with Denis - not for me at all. It was actually a bit pathetic and powdery in taste and had a strange spiced twang to it. Buy Co-op Earl Grey, it is by far the best.

Earl Grey should be as much about the smell as the taste, and Tesco's finest Earl Grey tea brings the scent of bergamot to your nostrils long before you ever take a sip. It's strong and full of flavour, just what a tea should be. (read more)

I agree!
We used to buy it and like it because it used real begamot oil when other brands had changed to flavouring. Bought some for the first time in ages and it is definitely NOT Earl Grey.
