My two teas of choice are green tea and earl grey. Green tea goes great with meals, and early grey makes a nice morning or evening relaxing drink. When I saw a package combing them both, I had to give it a try.

And it is good. The mixing of green and black teas has a unique flavor, and the oil of the rind of a bergamot orange gives it that distinct "earl grey" taste. Overall, it tastes much more like the classic earl grey black tea, with those notes overpowering the green tea, but it does have a lighter flavor than pure earl grey.

I don't know if this will be come a regular drink for me, but it was a pleasant surprise and one that I will pull out every now and then. It would be a fantastic beverage for those seeking the health benefits of green tea but aren't particularly taken with the flavor. It is also an organic tea, which is an added bonus in flavor, health and overall quality of product.

The combination of green and black tea can be tasted in every sip. The fragrance of bergamot is intoxicating. The use of organic ingredients also adds to the overall appreciation of the tea.

We are major tea drinkers and this Stash Premium Organic Earl Grey tea is wonderful. Great flavor, great price and added benefit of getting antioxidants. A win/win for everyone!!! Highly recommended

I love this tea! I'd underestimated that, however, when I subscribed to the Stash organic sampler. Stash Premium Organic Tea Sampler, Variety Pack of Eight Flavors, Tea Bags, 18-Count Boxes (Pack of 6) I (mistakenly) figured that I'd still get enough of this to suit me, but was wrong. Yes, I do enjoy the options, but even so, was too soon out of this one. That's why I came here to subscribe to it.

Many times only this particular tea will satisfy, such as first thing in the morning, or when I want an afternoon lift. I was brought up with the old German custom of "tea time," where black tea was daily served at 4 pm., and so I've been a black tea fan for most of my life. That tea was OK (it was all I knew), but this black tea is significantly better! I'm attached to the taste, which carries the familiar acidic "bite" of black tea, but balances it with the alkaline health effects of green tea. Like some others, I'd been initially put off by the black/green combo, wondering what to expect. Now, however, I can say to anyone considering it, that if you like Earl Grey tea, then you'll love this version!

For me, the flavor is best when the tea is piping hot (and less enjoyable if allowed to cool). Consequently, I tend to brew it in an insulated stainless steel mug, which is then topped by a silicone cup lid (similar to the one at this link). [...]

Currently I'm exploring infused tea, being curious about why gourmet tea drinkers will tend to disdain bagged tea. I just may discover flavors unexperienced! Even so, I doubt this Earl Grey version will lose its high placement on my favorites list. Simply put, it hits the spot. Anyway, teabags are very convenient to use first thing in the morning!

I've been a long-time fan of Stash (even before I switched to organic tea only), and so I've welcomed Amazon's prices. With the addition of the "subscribe & save" option, this is an especially good deal.

I have been drinking this tea blend for over a year and never grow tired of it. Love the blended flavor and the oil of bergamot. Being organic and fair trade certified is also a plus. To those of you who have tasted earl grey black and green teas separately and are curious about the mix--I would say the black tea flavor predominates, but the result is an extremely satisfying tea blend.

Great tea: the delicious taste of Earl Grey (if you like the delicious taste of Earl Grey) with a (presumably) lower caffeine dose than the straight stuff. Organic too. Highly recommended.

I have been buying this tea for a while from a local grocery store but it must be popular b/c it was often out of stock on the shelf so I decided to start buying from Amazon to ensure I would not have a tea shortage. Like one reviewer mentioned the bergamot or earl grey flavor is not as strong as some brands but this particular combination of earl grey black and green together is difficult to find especially in an affordable organic tea. Prior to discovering this tea I used to use one earl grey tea bag and one green tea tea bag, but this product just makes it simpler. This is also a great tea if you're like me and really prefer the taste of black tea but want to get the benefits of the green tea too.

The Earl Grey and Green tea mix is very smooth and a nice delicate flavor from the bergamot oil.
A nice way to start or end a day! I enjoy this in the evening with my treat of Chocolove 70% cocoa
strong dark chocolate. Ends every day nicely.

I was disappointed as I could not taste the bergamot like I can in Twinings Earl Grey. It was much better than Bigelow's Earl Grey Green and there was no bitter aftertaste. Maybe I expected it be more like the original Earl Grey. I was hoping that I'd like it as I would get the green tea benefits with the black tea taste, but the flavor still fell flat for me as it did not have the delicacy of Twinings. I think I'll stick to Salada green tea and keep my black tea Earl Grey. Salada doesn't have that hay like taste or the bitter aftertaste that some green teas have and it's inexpensive. Also, Celestial Seasonings has a Mandarin Orchard green tea that's really good.

Seriously, it is so good! Tea snobs that insist on using a decanter make me laugh. "Who uses tea bags?", they say. If you're feeling hip, you could go down to your local shopping mall, go inside a Teavana store, and spend over $100 bucks on a fancy teapot. Or, you could just buy a stainless-steel electric water heater for $10 and this tea for under $20. I drink at least 2 cups of the stuff at work. While it's super easy to screw up a good cup of coffee, it's impossible to screw up a good cup of Stash Early Grey Black and Green!
