Lavender Earl Grey

Black tea is the only tea group in which milk, honey, lemon and sugar pair nicely with. In terms of food pairings, this tea would make a lovely addition to rich desserts such as cheesecake or a chocolate cake.

Although both Earl Grey and English Breakfast are black teas, the aroma and palate of these two blends is fundamentally different. Earl Grey contains oil of bergamot giving the tea a subtle citrus flavour. English Breakfast on the other hand, is quite bold and brisk, and leaves a dry biscuity flavour in the palate. Unlike Earl Grey, this tea is a delicate combination of Ceylon and Keemun.

Like all tea, black tea can be drunk whenever one sees fit. That being said, due to the high caffeine content associated with this tea type we recommend consuming this tea in the morning or early afternoon.

Yes, depending upon the palate experience in which you wish to enjoy, milk or oat milk makes a wonderful addition to any Earl Grey. Of course, a London Fog is a delicious variation!
