Smooth and malty Assam and Kenyan teas mesh well with a creamy vanilla flavour profile. This tea is smooth, silky and great with a splash of milk. A really good mid-afternoon cuppa.

Well, let’s start with I purchased 250 grams as soon as I opened the bag I got that familiar scent of a beautiful semi-fermented tea. Mellow earthy sweet as honey. Taste profile was exactly as you would expect smooth naturally sweet with hints of honey and ripe fruit. Medium to full body depending on your steep time. I have to go and have another cup. ORDER THIS TEA NOW. Do yourself a favour.
Loving the blend. Would like it if the strings were a bit longer on the sachets. They either end up in the tea or they just don't get enough saturation.
I've tried many Cream of Earl Grey teas through the years but this one stopped me in my tracks. You really can't go back to any other after you taste this one. Stunning!
