Earl Grey Tea - Premium Ceylon Black Tea with Bergamot

In 1830, a British Prime Minister received a gift of Chinese tea scented with bergamot oil. Two centuries later, the world still hasn't moved on. There's a reason.

Earl Grey is the most recognized tea in the world — and the most imitated. Most versions get it wrong. They use artificial bergamot flavoring, low-grade base tea, and call it done. Grenade Coffee's Earl Grey doesn't. Premium Ceylon Orange Pekoe black tea, real bergamot essential oil, and hand-selected blue cornflowers — the kind of ingredients that make the difference between a cup you finish and a cup you remember.

Bold enough for the Grenade lineup. Refined enough to stand on its own.

What the cup delivers

• Bright bergamot and orange citrus on the open — vivid, aromatic, immediately distinctive
• Floral elegance through the mid-palate — cornflower and bergamot in perfect balance
• Malty Ceylon depth on the finish — robust, full-bodied, grounding
• High body with a clean, crisp close — the finish that makes you reach for another cup
• Medium sweetness — refined without being delicate

What's in the blend

• Ceylon Orange Pekoe black tea — the premium Sri Lankan base that gives Earl Grey its backbone
• Bergamot essential oil — real oil, not flavoring. The signature citrus brightness that defines the blend.
• Blue cornflowers — visual beauty and a subtle floral note that elevates every steep

Built for operators who appreciate precision

Earl Grey is the tea for the person who knows exactly what they want and won't settle for less. The afternoon reset when coffee feels too heavy. The morning cup when you want clarity with elegance. The gift that tells someone you have taste. Whatever the moment — this cup delivers with the kind of quiet confidence that doesn't need to announce itself.

How to brew

• Classic: 1 tsp loose leaf in 12oz water at 195°F, steep 5 minutes — the bergamot opens fully, the cornflowers bloom
• London style: Add a splash of milk and a touch of sugar — creamy, mellow, traditional
• Black: Steep 3–4 minutes, drink straight — pure citrus and malt, nothing in the way
• Iced Earl Grey: Brew double-strength, pour over ice — bright, refreshing, sophisticated

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct light and strong odors. Reseal after each use to preserve the bergamot aromatics — the oil is delicate and rewards proper care.
