Black tea delicatley flavoured with oil of bergamot.
Black tea is best made with water brought to a full boil and used immediately for the tea to release its full flavour (if you're using a teapot remember to warm the pot first). Use one teabag per person or one teaspoon of loose-leaf tea per person.
Allow to brew for 3-5 minutes. If you like your tea strong add more tea, don't steep for longer as this will turn the flavours bitter.
Drink with lemon, with milk or on its own.
Our Earl Grey blend is available in boxes of 40 traditional teabags and packs of 100g or 500g Loose leaf tea. We also have an Earl Grey and Cornflower blend.
Perfect to enjoy by itself, but even better with a slice of lemon drizzle cake or a lemon shortbread thin for an extra special treat!
Make sure you store your tea in an airtight container – a tin is better than plastic, or seal up the packaging it arrives in. Although tea feels dry, it contains 3 % moisture and oils that are essential to its flavour. If not properly stored these can evaporate. Keep your tea in a fairly cool, dry place, which is out of sunlight and try to keep away from any spices that could taint the flavour.
