The original blend was said to be a diplomatic gift — a Chinese tea scented with bergamot oil to offset the lime in the water at Howick Hall, the Earl's estate. Today, it remains one of the most recognized and beloved teas in the world, enjoyed from London drawing rooms to New York coffee shops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur Earl Grey stays true to that heritage — Ceylon black tea, pure bergamot essential oil, and blue cornflowers — nothing more, nothing less.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Brew\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassic Hot:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5g (approx. 1 heaping teaspoon) per 12oz of water at 195°F — steep 5–10 minutes for a bold, aromatic cup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLondon Fog Latte:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brew double-strength, add steamed oat milk or whole milk, a splash of vanilla syrup, and a drizzle of honey — the ultimate cozy Earl Grey experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIced Earl Grey:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brew double-strength, pour over ice, and add a squeeze of fresh lemon for a refreshing, citrusy iced tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWith Milk \u0026amp; Sugar:\u003c\/strong\u003e A classic British approach — a splash of whole milk and a teaspoon of sugar softens the astringency and brings out the malty sweetness beautifully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ The classic tea lover who appreciates quality ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ London Fog and Earl Grey latte enthusiasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ An elegant afternoon tea moment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ Gifting — timeless, universally recognized, and always appreciated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ Anyone ready to upgrade from tea bags to a truly superior loose leaf experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAvailable in 3oz loose leaf — approximately 15–20 cups per bag.
