Earl Grey

Earl Grey is one of the world's most iconic tea blends, and its unique flavour profile makes it unmistakable among all teas. What makes Earl Grey particularly remarkable is the bergamot oil - a subtle, citrus-like oil extracted from the bergamot fruit. This flavourful oil adds a fresh and light floral character that balances the depth and richness of the black tea. Most of our Earl Grey varieties are organic, and our bergamot oil comes from Calabria, known for its exceptional bergamot quality.Most of our Earl Grey varieties are also offered as organic tea.The name "Earl Grey" is believed to come from Charles Grey, a British Prime Minister in the 1830s. According to popular legend, the tea was named after him after he received it as a gift in gratitude for his diplomatic help in China. While the veracity of the story is questionable, the tea has undoubtedly become a beloved drink around the world. It is easy to understand why this tea has remained popular for generations and continues to appeal to new tea drinkers all over the world.

In addition to the traditional black tea blend, Earl Grey is also available as green tea and rooibos - two variations for those looking for a different twist on the bergamot flavour. Green Earl Grey offers a lighter, more herbal character with a milder caffeine content, making it a popular option for those who like green tea but still want the fresh notes of bergamot. Rooibos Earl Grey, on the other hand, is completely decaffeinated and offers a sweeter, earthy base that harmonises beautifully with the bergamot.

For those who want to buy tea in bulk, Earl Grey allows you to adjust the brewing strength and experiment with different shades. Choosing loose leaf tea is particularly beneficial for Earl Grey, as the bergamot oil stays fresher in large, whole leaves. Whether you prefer black tea, green tea or rooibos as a base, Earl Grey always offers a sophisticated drinking experience.
