Earl Grey Heritage Folhas Soltas

The bergamot is beautifully balanced—crisp without drowning out the black tea’s malty depth, and the leaves hold up for two infusions before fading. I’ve been brewing it every afternoon for a week now and the aroma alone makes the whole kitchen feel like a proper tearoom.

Finally, an Earl Grey that doesn't skimp on the bergamot—the citrusy aroma hits you the second the bag opens. The loose leaf brews up a deep, robust cup that holds its flavor even after a few minutes of steeping. Perfect for a slow afternoon.

The bergamot comes through beautifully without being sharp, and the black tea base holds up to a couple of steeps with plenty of depth. I've been making it a midafternoon ritual since the pouch arrived.
