Beyond the cup

Earl Grey goes green – lighter, more floral, and surprisingly versatile. The bergamot opens up on the green tea base, revealing herbal and piney notes you miss on black. Steep into cream for bergamot panna cotta. Infuse into butter for shortbread with a citrus-floral twist. Works beautifully as iced tea.

What’s in it

Every herb in the blend, and where to read about it on its own.

  • Tea · Contains caffeine

    Green Tea

    Camellia sinensis

    The same leaf as black tea, with the oxidation stopped almost as soon as it starts — by pan-firing in a dry wok in China, by steaming in Japan. That one difference is why green tea is green, grassy and delicate where black is dark...

    Grassy and vegetal with a clean sweetness; gunpowder is bolder and faintly smoky, chun mee plummy and less sweet

  • Flower · Caffeine-free

    Cornflower

    Centaurea cyanus

    The blue in your tea. Cornflower petals are in eighteen products here and they are there to be looked at: the pigment, protocyanin, is one of the few真 blues in the botanical world, and it survives drying where almost nothing else blue does. They contribute...

    Almost nothing — a faint clove-like sweetness at most. It is in the blend for the blue

  • Flavouring · Caffeine-free

    Bergamot

    Citrus bergamia

    The oil pressed from the skin of a sour citrus fruit, and the single thing that makes Earl Grey Earl Grey. Nine products here carry it. Bergamot is not a flavour that exists in nature elsewhere — it is floral and citrus at once, more...

    Floral and citrus at once — closer to perfume than to fruit, with a clean bitter edge

Always handy

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.

It worked beautifully; perhaps if I add a little more honey, it would make it better… It is a wellness tea, after all!
