Wow, this tea is good! I love earl gray anyway, especially when it has a unique spin on it. The first sip is a vanilla creme flavor followed by red berries and then a light hit of bergamot in the back end of the taste. Everything in this tea is perfectly balanced. Even though there is hibiscus in this (which I love as that adds to the berry profile) I think that I could still make this into a latte. Wonderful tea. I especially love that the CommuniTEA is putting fandom blends into the subscription box because I can try teas that I would probably have never tried otherwise.

I'm pretty set in my ways as a tea drinker, so this new-tea-every-day thing is really stepping out of my comfort zone! I love Earl Grey, but this one has almost too much going on for my taste. It smelled very pungent in the bag and I'm actually glad it's a bit more mellow in the cup. It's not unpleasant, just not something I would make my go-to. But as a children's librarian and lover of all things Sendak, I gotta appreciate the name!

I love earl grey blends! The sweetness and brightness of the berries is a perfect counterpoint to the warm black tea, bergamot, and vanilla cream of Earl Grey Moonlight. Adding this blend to my wishlist!

Feb 2 Happy Groundhog Day! Loved drinking this on the front porch this beautiful afternoon. Love Earl Grey and the berries and vanilla was a delicious addition and well balanced with the bergamot. When I saw the name Wild Rumpus it made it all the better! My favorite book as a kid. I pulled it out and read it.

The fruit half was great, very light and flavorful. Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of bergamot and that did me in. Otherwise I would have loved it.

Interesting creaminess, but not my cup of tea :)

I loved this tea. It didn’t seem to taste like earl grey to me which is a good thing for me. The bergamot was not discernible. The flavors mixed together were brilliant. It’s going on my wishlist.

I smell cinnamon, but there isn't any cinnamon in the tea! I also smell apples. I'd probably prefer this tea with less fruit. Certainly, not a favorite black tea for me. I'm not a huge fan of Earl Greys either. I would pass on this one.
