Our black Ceylon Earl Grey tea is a refined blend of a classic tea base and noble additions. At its heart is high-quality black Ceylon tea, known for its rich infusion and full-bodied taste. The central note is natural bergamot oil, which gives the drink its characteristic, refreshing citrus aroma and a subtle spiciness, instantly recognizable by connoisseurs worldwide.
Cornflower petals not only visually enrich the blend but also add a light floral touch to the overall bouquet, making it more multifaceted and appealing. The tea’s taste can be described as refreshing and crisp, with a delicate, slight bitterness that perfectly balances the bright citrus notes. This beverage not only brings pleasure but is also enriched with natural vitamins and microelements, contributing to your well-being.
Ceylon: Cradle of Famous Tea
The black Earl Grey tea presented originates from the picturesque island of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka. This region is rightly considered one of the world’s tea production centers, thanks to its unique climate: high-altitude plantations, abundant rainfall, and fertile soils create ideal conditions for growing top-quality tea. It was here, in the mid-19th century, that Scottish planter James Taylor established the first commercial tea plantations, laying the foundation for Ceylon tea’s global fame. An interesting historical fact: before the advent of the tea industry, Ceylon was the largest coffee producer, but a coffee rust epidemic forced farmers to switch to tea, which proved to be a fateful decision for the island’s economy.The Art of Brewing the Perfect Earl Grey
