Our Organic Earl Grey tea needs no introduction. It is extremely well known all over the world and is particularly renowned as an afternoon tea classic!
It has been popular in Britain for almost two centuries, after the Second Earl Grey introduced it to the high society.
Many people know and love this tea type. However, its health benefits are less known. In point of fact, the bergamot flavouring in this tea is an extract from a bitter citrus fruit called bergamot. So, just like many citrus fruits, it contains a lot of Vitamin C. In addition, bergamot is known for enhancing the quality of your blood. It reduces your blood sugar levels and bad cholesterol, but increases good cholesterol.
As an icing on the cake, our Organic Earl Grey tea is made solely from organic ingredients. Those include large-leafed China tea, Darjeeling tea and oil of bergamot. It is wonderfully fragrant and would be excellent with cakes and sweet treats!
Enjoy a cup of this world-famous tea!
Flavoured Black Tea
Many people prefer to taste black tea in their original form. That is why many types of black tea, such as Pu Erh tea, Keemun tea, Orange Pekoe tea, Fine Darjeeling tea have become so popular.
However, adding different elements to Loose Leaf Black Tea is very fashionable too. And many world-famous tea types, such as Loose Leaf Earl Grey tea, originated thanks to this fashion! When other elements, such as herbs, fruit or flavourings are added to Loose Leaf Black Tea, this creates different types of Flavoured Black tea.
Bedford tea proudly offers you a vast collection of Flavoured Black Tea in our selection of Loose Leaf Black Tea! Some of these teas are world-famous. Others are rather new and less known. The only thing we guarantee for all of our tea types is high quality!
For example, our Organic Earl Grey Tea is a very conventional, classic type of Flavoured Black Tea! It is so well-known, that many tea producers took it as a model to create variations based on this refined blend! One of the most interesting teas that was derived from the classic Earl Grey Tea is Lady Grey Loose Leaf Tea! The addition of citrus notes, such as the orange peel, contribute to the gentle and truly ladylike flavour of this tea!
Finally, Organic Earl Grey Tea is a very elegant and refined tea type. Therefore, it is definitely incompatible with a mere thought of having to wash your teapot afterwards. However, that is what you are usually supposed to do after enjoying a nice Loose Leaf tea! Should you wish to avoid this unpleasant task, discover our Tea Accessories!
