Premium Bergamot-Infused Black Tea in Generous 200g Pouches
Earl's Citrus Delight Loose Leaf Tea, available in 200g pouches, delivers an authentic Earl Grey experience with every brew. In practice, the tea leaves unfurl completely within three to four minutes of steeping, releasing a robust amber liquor with pronounced bergamot oil aromatics and subtle citrus undertones. The loose leaf format provides superior flavor extraction compared to pre-portioned bags, allowing tea enthusiasts to adjust strength from delicate morning brews to bold afternoon servings. Each 200-gram pouch contains approximately 65 to 70 servings when using the traditional three-gram measure per cup.
Traditional Black Tea Base with Natural Citrus Enhancement
This premium Earl Grey tea is crafted from select Ceylon and Assam black tea leaves, which provide the robust tannin structure essential for carrying bergamot oil infusion. The bergamot citrus extract—derived from the rind of Citrus bergamia fruit grown in Mediterranean regions—is applied using traditional blending methods that ensure even distribution throughout the leaf. The resealable foil-lined pouch protects the volatile aromatic compounds from oxidation and moisture, maintaining the tea's characteristic citrus fragrance for up to twelve months when stored in cool, dry conditions. This British-style tea follows the classic Earl Grey formulation recognized by tea sommeliers and specialty beverage professionals worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions About Earl's Citrus Delight Tea
How should I store this loose leaf tea after opening?
Keep the pouch sealed between uses and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odors. Proper storage maintains optimal flavor for 10-12 months after opening.
Can this tea be served with milk or sweeteners?
Yes, Earl Grey tea traditionally pairs well with a splash of milk and optional sweetener, though many prefer it plain to fully appreciate the bergamot notes. The robust black tea base holds up well to milk additions without becoming overly diluted.
What is the difference between loose leaf and bagged Earl Grey tea?
Loose leaf tea contains larger, whole leaves that provide fuller flavor extraction and allow sediment-free brewing when using an infuser or teapot strainer. Tea bags typically contain smaller leaf particles that brew quickly but offer less complexity in flavor profile.
