Aged Earl Grey

I really like Numi Organic Aged Earl Grey Tea because it’s just made well. You can taste the difference right away. The black tea is smooth and not bitter, and the real bergamot comes through naturally—fragrant but not overpowering or artificial. It feels balanced and clean, not perfumey like some Earl Greys can be. It brews consistently, smells great, and feels like a higher-quality tea than most grocery-store options. If you care about ingredients and want an Earl Grey that tastes authentic, this one is a solid choice.

Your drinking a highly rated tea, no carcinogens, tea bags are free from chemicals bergamot excellent health benefits and the taste is wow. Fresh yes and brew according to your strength of flavor. Value cost effective to buy more than one and beats the store prices if you can find it. Why wait!

When I watched a video showing what's in our tea's, I thru them all out and ordered this one. Organic, and tested for any kind of pesticide residue. Also much fresher (some teas may be over a year old by the time you buy them). Tea bags out of natural plant based material, instead of bleached, chemical laden with micro-plastics. And yes, it does taste much better. I do miss the "apple cinnamon" flavors from "some" tea companies, but they are artificially flavored (FDA allows companies to use the phrase "natural flavor's" even though they are not). So do wish they'd make a tea flavor using dried apples, and cinnamon.

Initially, I got this Numi Organic Aged Earl Grey Black Tea for my mom, for when she drinks tea, in an effort to get her to eat (and drink) as organic & healthy as much as possible. The fact that it is also "Fair Trade Certified" and made with non-GMO, biodegradable filter-paper tea bags, rather than the plastic or GMO-material tea bags of other tea companies and the tea bags come in a cardboard/paper box that is completely recyclable or compostable, was an added bonus. On top of that, the fact that the employees at the Numi tea estate in Assam, India also get a fair livable wage, decent housing, medical care, and education, as well as a plot of land for their own use (like to raise crops for personal use and/or for sale) was just the "icing on the cake" (so to speak!) When I first got this tea, it was mainly my mom (and occasionally my brother) who had it. Because I wasn't much of a tea-drinker (or coffee-drinker, for that matter, either). In fact until the past few years, I wasn't/hadn't been much of a hot beverage drinker in general (instead, usually just cold drinks like sparkling water, soda [before I went organic/healthy], lemonade, punch, apple juice/cider [again, before going organic/healthy], etc.) Then awhile back, I started getting into an LCHF (low-carb, high fat)/ketogenic-type diet, including "Bulletproof Butter Coffee" (originally started by Tibetan Buddhist monks, and recently popularized by Dave Asprey ) and started drinking coffee more often -- though still NOT on a daily basis (like most who follow the "Bulletproof" plan), because of the general aversion I had to hot beverages for most of my life (until recently). Meanwhile, I had started getting this Numi Organic Aged Earl Grey Black Tea for my mother, and occasionally my brother (who also follows the "Bulletproof Coffee" plan -- but in his case, he DOES drink coffee pretty much daily) to replace the Lipton, and other conventional teas, full of pesticides (and other junk) and made using toxic plastics or GMO-material tea bags. Since I wasn't a big tea/hot beverage drinker, initially I never bothered to try this tea myself instead only having coffee, or occasionally hot chocolate, otherwise only cold drinks. Then one day, I wanted something other than anything I usually had, so I tried this tea...........and I'm so glad I did, because its wonderful. Like I said, I wasn't a regular tea drinker until I found this tea -- and now I drink it on a daily, or nearly daily basis. In fact, even with reusing the tea-bags (because we are able to get 2, sometimes even 3 cups of tea out of each tea bag!), we still go through so much of the tea that, now, instead of buying this 18 count box of tea bags, I instead buy it in THIS 100 Count bulk case through "Subscribe & Save"! Because, seriously, I ♡ this tea. It is literally a MILLION times better than Lipton (or other non-organic conventional) teas. In fact, THIS is one of the best black teas I've ever had. One can definitely taste the citrus-y hint of bergamot, but its not overwhelming -- and rather a very balanced flavor! Also, though Numi Organic Aged Earl Grey Black Tea is caffeinated, that is not a downside to me, because I actually NEED the caffeine. Due to certain chronic medical conditions and then the side effects/adverse reactions from the so-called "treatment" (Thanks, Big pHARMa meds & vaccines! 😡 ) I've got a lot of sleep problems, and am never (or very rarely) able to fall asleep at night. Even if/when I do, I either wake up constantly throughout and at best, am only able to sleep in 2-3 hour snatches -- OR I'm plagued by horrible nightmares, waking up sweating, panting for breath and/or in tears. As a result, my sleep & schedule is totally messed up. Take last night as one example, I couldn't fall asleep until like 6:30 this morning, and then I woke up sometime around 8:15, then again at 10:30, before finally waking for good (well relatively!) by 11:45. Now its 3pm and I'm already starting to feel drowsy -- though this is helping a bit -- hopefully long enough to be able to stay awake until a reasonable time tonight to go to bed. What I really like (even LOVE) about this Numi Organic Tea is that it has enough caffeine to wake me up/keep me awake for a decent amount of time, but yet without the jitters & heartburn that I sometimes get from coffee -- especially strong(er) coffee. I HIGHLY recommend this tea. It is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS -- and that's coming from someone who only had a cup of tea once or twice a year (if even that!) until a few months ago!! ★☆★☆★ 5 STARS!!!!

This is nice quality, good tasting tea at a reasonable price for organic. I actually like my Earl Grey with a bit more bergamot so am giving four stars rather than five, but still very enjoyable.

This is a lovely cup of tea. You can actually taste the bergamot. It is on the sweet side and full bodied. I enjoy this very much. It is also nice and strong which I love. Will be buying this from now on.

I changed my morning tea to the Numi brand after recommendation on purity and product being free of contaminants. Numi tea is more flavorful and pleasent than my old brand. (I was using another brand for years possibly decades or more and discovered the old brand tested high in glysophate contamination.)

Amazing truly organic high quality tea!! The flavor is rich, bold and round, it is not bitter or acidic. A perfect cuppa for breakfast or afternoon!
