Worth it for the tin! Even if you don't love this tea, you can store your favorite Earl Grey in there and order it authoritatively every morning.

You're lucky! When I ordered it, my tin came dented.

Just ordered the above in because i have been meaning to try it ever since i found out it existed.
What kind of teas have you ever ordered, even knowing full well it may not be the best quality but you wanted it.(Cool looking tins, whatever reason).
Where did you find it? I'd love to get some for some Trekkie friends of mine!
Available on the Think Geek store currently. Having had a couple cups i can definitely say...not the greatest earl grey. But as mentioned here by others. The Tin is fun enough on its own.
I feel like whatever leaves/brand they are using in this is one of the cheaper end type that tends to compensate by infusing more bergamot oil into the batch. Because it certainly smells great and has a nice appearance for the leaves. Taste however...
Still a good gift for a trekkie fan i would wager.
would you say it's on par with adagio earl grey bravo or worse? I've seen some things saying it's a proprietary blend and other people saying it's just repackaged earl grey bravo.
IIRC they sell it on ThinkGeek
Thanks!
