Viva Doria Bergamot Essential Oil, 100% Pure, Natural, Italian Bergamot Essential Oil, Undiluted, for Aromatherapy | Food Grade, 15 mL (0.5 Fluid Ounce)

purchased to add to tea leaves works well

I love Darjeeling Earl Grey tea. Combines the lighter delicate Darjeeling tea with fragrant Bergamot bitter orange. My favourite was supplied with a good dose of oil and bits of dried bergamot. Alas no longer made. I have found other brands really lacking in flavour, so now buy loose leaf Darjeeling, sprinkle some oil in the container to taste , shake it up and job done. Sometimes add fresh or dried orange or bergamot. A single drop in a large mug of water is also refreshing.

Dropper too fast to just put one drop in a cuppa

Brilliant essential oil.

Great! Now making my own earl grey tea!

Absolutely brilliant fragrance and flavour! I first bought a small bottle of bergamot flavouring back around 2011 and loved it in tea, bakery and spice mixes for fruits. Reading the reviews for Viva Doria's Bergamot - the fact that it is food grade caught my attention because none of the other offerings on site mentioned food grade as that was primary for me. It's great in tea (makes a sort of an instant Earl Grey / Lady Grey tea and, as another reviewer mentioned, a little goes a long way. Really superb!

Excellent quality, and also very potent concentration. One drop goes a long way, I use it for mixology, was looking for FOOD GRADE availability.

Wonderful scent! Taste is not equal to the scent. However, I bought this brand because it was food grade. I might add a few more drops to get a richer taste

I just discovered earl grey last year and all the loose teas or tea bags are disappointing as far as flavor go. Only Taylor’s loose earl grey has met my expectations, it doesn’t turn bitter is just nice. I purchase this oil of bergamot because I’m using unflavored loose tea and none of the others have that Taylor’s flavor. This makes my cup amazing with just two drops but you have to do it just as the tea has finished boiling or right when you pour water in the cup with the bag. Otherwise it’ll just sit on the top and is odd flavor wise. I love this and will come back for a bigger bottle since I my husband likes earl grey too.

In this small half ounce size, no eye dropper, so drops come out without shaking. Just 1 drop gives my Earl Grey the boost I want ! I'm counting the number of drops per ounce, guessing about 100 to 150. Postscript - liked it so much, I got the 4 oz size ! Great product, lasts a loving time.
