Easily the most prestigious Earl Grey I’ve ever had. It tastes amazingly modern with it’s Yunnan base tea and this gentle Bergamot texturing; it’s got incredible depth. This is an Earl Grey for people who love Earl Grey as it’s both immediately familiar but absolutely unique all at the same time. The only thing I would say is this isn’t a breakfast tea, it’s just too spectacular to waste on a mouthful of eggs, bacon and potato’s. Enjoy it in the early hours of the afternoon, it will really set you up for the rest of your day.

This is probably as close as you’re going to get to the original recipe for Earl Grey. There’s a very distinguished Bergamot flavor against this wall of woody, almost oak, Sri Lankan tea. It’s properly masculine, something you’d imagine Sean Connery drinking. What I would say is this isn’t for the faint of hearts; it’s correctly firm in it’s tea and bergamot delivery. Blue collar then; so if you’re looking for something a bit more regal, with a more gentle zest of bergamot, I would go to the Palais Des Thes ‘Blue of London’.
