Earl Grey

Earl Grey is a classic, quintessentially British tea!  A black tea (Camellia Senensis) flavoured with the rind of the bergamot orange, a citrus fruit. It can be consumed with milk and sugar (or honey) or neat with a slice of lemon, which perfectly complements the bergamot notes.

Colour:  clear, burnt orange, sienna, dark amber

Aroma: fragrant, spicy, citrus, malty

Taste: sweet, floral, fragrant, citrus, with a slight pleasant bitterness from the bergamot orange against an earthy and bold black tea.  Elegant, refreshing, rich, complex and sophisticated.  The unmistakable flavour of Earl Grey!

Pair with: absolutely delicious with scones or crumpets, cream (clotted if you can get !)  and jam.

Brew temp: 95-100 degrees
Brew time:: +-5min
