Description

The blend

This pretty tea takes the traditional bergamot and citrus flavours of our much-loved Earl Grey and couples them with the light fragrance of Cornflower. This pack contains 10g of delciate, loose leaf tea that will help you relax and unwind.

The taste

A traditional black tea flavoured with oil of bergamot and blended with cornflowers. This light tea has a delicate citrus aroma and a strong, fragrant taste.

The benefit

Black tea contains polyphenols, a type of antioxidant. Caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine are also found in black tea, which is said can improve alertness and focus – even more than coffee!

The moment

Feeling stressed and overwhelmed? This could be the tea blend for you. The oil of bergamot in this blend is said to calm the mind and improve mood, so this is a delightful tea to relax with after a long day at work.

The creation

Using traditional methods of blending and tasting, this tea has been carefully crafted by the Miles team, using Miles experTeas!

Based on the edge of Exmoor and on Somerset’s coastline, we take inspiration from our beautiful surroundings to create a cuppa that embodies a little escape, evoking memories of a holiday in the West Country, with each sip. Our attention to detail and experience ensures a consistent, flavourful tea that will see you constantly topping up your mug.

Ingredients

The tea

Black tea with oil of bergamot and cornflowers

Perfect Brew

Perfect Brew

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. 

Perfect pack

Our Earl Grey and Cornflower blend is available in boxes of 15 of premium pyramid shaped Tea Kites or a choice of 100g or 500g packs of loose leaf tea.

Perfect pair

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!

Storage

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.
