Earl Grey. Our Earl Grey is a traditional large leaf blend of China Keemun and Indian Darjeeeling with oil of bergamot, an Italian citrus fruit. It is a well balanced tea, having the right proportion of bergamot oil giving a refreshing but not overpowering taste.

China Keemun. Keemun is grown in Anhui Province and is a 'gongfu' tea requiring disciplined skill to produce thin tight strips. It produces a rich liquor with a slightly scented flavour and delicate aroma. Keemun is the most famous of China's black teas and, due to its subtle and complex nature, it is considered the "burgundy of teas".
