I have been given Earl Gray tea many times, especially abroad , and in every case it's been digusting a bit like drinking scented mushroom soup. Am I alone in hating Earl Gray .

Love orange pekoe - and one adore is Chinese Oolong tea (black tea) with chrysanthenum petals in it - this they take with dim sum and it is so refreshing. Known as "Ko Po" pronounced Ko po-ur - in the States, Mexican waiters in Chinese dim sum restaurants have confused this with "Coca Cola" - and you see the exasperation on the faces of the Chinese staff with their "ancilliary" staff - and, from experience, if you think we are racist, you haven't met the Chinese.

Interesting answers and slinky kate liking Lemon Tea which brings up the point whhat do we mean by 'tea' ? To be correct : //To be a tea, it must come from the camellia sinensis plant. ...//
However I like Apple tea which which is suppied by Lift who also supply Lemon Tea but it is not tea . There are no leaves and it comes in powder and granule form. I first had it in T

I don't like scented teas at all, but I do like white tea and green tea - no milk.

I like Earl Gray with a little milk, but what is even better is a pot of tea made with 2 bog-standard tea bags and one Earl Gray.

Isn't is Earl Grey, with an E?

cont I had it in Turkey where it is just called Turkish tea. I suppose all those herbal teas are not true tea either. Most of those are are pretty disgusting as well but then I find China tea which is proper tea but picked much earlier also unpalatable.
I think the big difference between the various teas is what is added to them I find I can taste the scent in Earl Gray for many hours after drinking it.

Agree modeller, it smells of fish to me.
