Alternative to David's tea Earl Grey

Hi!
I'm a fan of David's Tea Earl Grey loose leaf but wonder if you, tea connoisseurs, have a recommendation for 1. As good (good is of course personal) and 2. Cheaper?
Thank you!

I use Vadham Earl Gray from Amazon for my iced tea. Great nose and flavour. Pricy, but comes on sale regularly. It is also available on their website.

I can't recall the pricing at the top of my head but my absolute hands down fav is from Pluck - Cream of Earl Grey. Way better than David's Tea. You can buy bagged or loose and also in bulk sizes. Bonus also local Canadian company.

Pluck's earl grey cream is simply awesome, easily one of the best.

Banff Tea Co.

Highly recommended, but shipping kills any deal.

I was gifted a number of teas from T.Kettle and I have enjoyed all of them. https://www.t-kettle.com/ In fact I have been looking at their summer blends and trying to decide what to try.

I buy some decent orange pekoe bulk then add oil of bergamot.
Do you not have anything else to do rather than argue with strangers on the internet
Nope. That's why I'm on the internet arguing with strangers. If I had anything better to do I'd probably be doing it.

Well OP, looks like there isn't a TWG in Quebec yet, but there may be soon. They just opened recently in Vancouver and Toronto.
Here's their website for reference, just in case they decide to do business in Quebec soon: https://twgtea.com/locations/north-america/canada

For good and cheaper, I really like Stash Double Bergamot.

For better and much more expensive, Fortnum & Mason Classic and Countess Grey.
