Earl Grey Tea – Chinese Black Tea with Italian Bergamot Oil

Earl Grey Tea – Chinese Black Tea with Italian Bergamot Oil

Earl Grey is one of the most recognizable and enduring black teas in the world. This classic blend combines Chinese black tea with fragrant Italian bergamot oil, creating a cup that is both bold and beautifully aromatic.

Traditionally known as the Copenhagen Blend, Earl Grey was widely sourced through Denmark during the mid-20th century, gaining popularity throughout Europe and beyond through the 1960s. Today, it remains a staple of refined tea menus across hotels, cafés, and restaurants.

Our Earl Grey brews a medium-bodied cup with fruity, dry citrus aromatics and a clean, elegant finish. The bright bergamot lifts the richness of the black tea without overpowering it, making this blend equally suited for breakfast service, afternoon tea, or all-day enjoyment.
