About this product
Bergamot over dark loose leaves
- The first impression is bergamot, that clean citrus aroma which gives Earl Grey its unmistakable character.
- Black tea gives the blend its deeper body, making it suited to slow sipping rather than a quick herbal infusion.
- Mallow flowers bring a gentle floral note, visible among the dark leaves in purple and golden pieces.
- The loose format gives the leaves room to open in the pot, with a softer, more deliberate feel than a teabag.
- The copper-coloured tin and dark botanical label make it easy to keep near the kettle, ready for everyday ritual.
Brewing it gently
Use it as you would a loose black tea, with a tea infuser, strainer or teapot basket. Add freshly boiled water and adjust the strength to your taste, taking care not to leave the leaves standing longer than you enjoy.
It can be taken plain, with milk, or with a slice of lemon if that is how you like your Earl Grey. Keep the tin closed between uses so the bergamot aroma stays bright.
A small afternoon ritual
This is the tea for a clean cup, a real pause and a few minutes away from the noise of the day. The scent does much of the work before the first sip: citrus at the top, black tea underneath, flowers softening the edges.
A European classic, softened with flowers
Earl Grey is one of the best-known scented black teas in the British and European tea tradition, usually recognised by its bergamot fragrance. Bergamot is a citrus fruit with a distinctive aromatic peel, giving the blend its bright, perfumed character. Here, the familiar black tea base is paired with mallow flowers, adding a gentler floral presence to a classic cup without turning it into a sweet or herbal blend.
Tin and contents
Contains 50 g of loose leaf black tea with bergamot aroma and mallow flowers, presented in a decorative tin.
For the Earl Grey drinker
A good gift for someone who keeps a favourite tea by the kettle, enjoys loose leaf brewing, or likes a classic black tea with a more fragrant edge. It suits birthdays, housewarmings, winter care parcels and small thank-you gifts.
