This flowery Earl Grey is great if you fancy a change from your usual Earl Grey. While the ratio of lavender blossoms to tea is high, the result is not overpowering. On the contrary, we’ve tried it with less lavender, and also with less (and more!) bergamot, but we think that with this version we’ve finally got the right mix. Put us to the test and see – we’d love to hear what you think!
When we first launched our Lavender Earl Grey, we weren’t sure how it would be received. After all, lavender isn’t everyone’s cup of tea! Luckily, our concerns were unfounded.
By adding 2.5% organic lavender petals along with rose and cornflower petals to a medium strength black tea flavoured with natural bergamot oil, we have created a blend that is not only invigorating and calming, but also visually stunning and delicious. The delicate lavender enhances the classic bergamot notes, creating a unique and memorable flavour that has quickly become a favourite with our customers.
The addition of petals and flowers to Earl Grey tea is a modern twist, inspired by the desire to enhance and diversify the flavour profile of the original blend. Lavender, with its long history of culinary and medicinal use, was a natural choice. Known for its calming properties and aromatic qualities, it helped us create a more complex and sophisticated version of Earl Grey.
Today, Lavender Earl Grey is enjoyed by tea lovers all over the world. Its versatility allows it to be enjoyed hot or as an iced tea, with or without milk and sweeteners, making it a popular choice at any time of day.
Our Lavender Earl Grey offers a light and refreshing taste when steeped for just 2-3 minutes, perfect for enjoying straight. For a richer, more robust flavour, steep for 4-5 minutes and add milk or cream. This adaptability allows you to tailor each cup to your preference, whether you’re looking for a delicate, fragrant experience or a comforting, creamy indulgence.
Even non-lavender fans will enjoy this aromatic and floral Lavender Earl Grey. If you are not sure if this is your cup of tea, why not try a small sample or even compare it with all ten of our Earl Grey teas in our Earl Grey Sampler? We think you might be surprised.
Black tea, lavender blossoms (2,5%), natural flavour, blue cornflower blossoms, pink rose petals.
