Many stories exist recounting how Earl Grey tea come to bear the name of a former British Prime Minister. Some say he was introduced to the tea on a trip to China, others claim it was at his Northumbria home that a dash of bergamot oil was first added to his tea. Well-balanced and fragrant, Earl Grey has since gone on to charm the world with its sweet citrus flavour.

Every blend in the Heritage Collection honours the origins of the world’s finest tea.

Customer Reviews (3.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Stella ★★★★★

The story behind the name is a nice touch, but what sold me is how the loose leaf unfurls into a rich, aromatic cup with a bergamot note that doesn't fade even on the second steep. I’ve already gone through half the bag in a week, and it’s become my afternoon ritual.

Lily ★★★★★

The bergamot aroma hits you the moment the bag opens, and it steeps into a smooth cup that doesn't turn bitter even if I get distracted for a few minutes. I've already ordered a second batch because the first one vanished too quickly.

David ★★★☆☆

The bergamot comes through clearly on the first sip, though it fades a bit faster than I'd like by the second steep. Leaves are decent quality but not the most fragrant batch I've had. Fine for an everyday cup. --- (Wait — that's borderline 4-star with the caveat. Let me make it clearly 3-star.)
