Category: Darjeeling Black Teas

Tasting Notes: citrus and floral 

Description:  Lively earl grey that has a captivating balance of Italian bergamot with high elevation Darjeeling Indian black tea.  A delicate earl grey that has the perfect harmony of citrus and floral notes mingling in each sip. 

What sets this earl grey apart is the vibrant bergamot balancing with Darjeeling tea's smooth astringency and pleasing dry-mouth finish.  An unforgettable tea that lingers on your palate.  

We love this earl grey for a midday and afternoon pick-me-up.  We recommend this tea for those that enjoy a light-bodied earl grey that is full of flavor. This tea would be perfect for lovers of lady grey and traditional earl grey.  We enjoy this tea straight up but you can add honey, sugar, or lemon.  We also love this tea iced - it's our current favorite iced earl grey tea.  

Ingredients: black tea, bergamot, cornflower petals

Steep Directions: steep 1 heaping teaspoon of tea per 8 oz boiling water, 205-212°F, for 3-4 minutes

Jason M. ★★★★★

The bergamot in this one is bright but never overwhelms the floral Darjeeling base - I've been brewing it with a little patience at 3 minutes for the perfect afternoon cup. The high elevation character really comes through, making it feel lighter and more delicate than typical earl greys I've tried

Eva ★★★★★

The citrus comes through first, then the florals settle in nicely on the finish, and it’s surprisingly smooth for a black tea. I’ve been brewing it a bit cooler than boiling and the delicate Darjeeling character really shines that way.

Amelia Q. ★★★★★

The bergamot here is bright and zesty without ever turning soapy, and it blends beautifully with the tea's natural floral notes. It brews a lovely cup that's refreshing enough for an afternoon pick-me-up, a real step up from the usual earl grey.
