A blend of black teas from India and Sri Lanka flavored with bergamot, Earl Grey is a great English classic appreciated worldwide. The bergamot reveals its floral notes during steeping, giving it an authentic taste. Legend has it that Earl Charles Grey brought back this recipe from a trip to China. Jacksons of Piccadilly claims to have received the recipe from the Earl. Its origin is therefore still very controversial.
There are many variations of the original recipe, made with green tea, Oolong or white tea. Flavored with flowers (lavender or rose petals) or lemongrass, Earl Grey teas come in a wide range to satisfy all desires. We also offer Russian Earl Grey which is a variant with a grapefruit and lemon taste.
While green teas are known for their virtues, black teas are not far behind! The bergamot in this black tea helps fight cholesterol. A fruit resembling a large lemon, bergamot also has other health benefits. Anti-aging, the bergamot oil present in this fragrant beverage slows down the appearance of wrinkles. It relieves digestive issues and soothes skin irritations. This bergamot-flavored tea also reduces stress and anxiety. Antiseptic and antispasmodic, the list of its benefits is long.
For an English tea with a good fragrant taste, it is important to respect the dosage, time and steeping temperature.
Steep about 12 to 15 grams of tea per liter of water. Adjust the quantity if you're preparing your tea in a cup. For a cup of about 15 to 20 cl, 2.5 grams is enough. It is advised to limit consumption to one liter per day.
The ideal steeping temperature for this citrus-flavored black tea is 100°C. Pour the water into the teapot or your cup and let steep for 3 to 5 minutes for the ingredients to reveal all their flavors.
High in theine, this black tea is best enjoyed in the morning, at breakfast. Full-bodied and rich in tannins, this bergamot-flavored tea is ideal for waking up. You can add a touch of milk or a slice of lemon for a tangy note, according to your taste.
Fresh and of excellent quality, loose Earl Grey tea preserves all its flavor and releases its natural aromas during tasting. You can buy this product by weight, in a tin or in a bag, according to your preferences.
