Our Earl Grey loose leaf black tea Reserve with Cornflowers is a refined, aromatic blend of bright high-grown Ceylon tea, fragrant bergamot and striking blue cornflower petals. Vivid in the cup and beautifully balanced on the palate, it delivers crisp black tea structure, lifted citrus fragrance and a smooth, polished finish — a premium Earl Grey to enjoy black, with milk, with lemon or served over ice.
Earl Grey Loose Leaf Black Tea with Cornflowers
Earl Grey Reserve with Cornflowers is a more elevated take on one of the world’s best-loved flavoured black teas. The base is high-grown Ceylon black tea selected for its clarity, briskness and naturally bright character, making it an excellent partner for the floral citrus lift of bergamot.
Blue cornflower petals add visual elegance throughout the dry leaf, creating a blend that looks as distinctive as it tastes.
Bright Ceylon Tea with Fragrant Bergamot
In the cup, this Earl Grey loose leaf black tea brews to a clear amber-copper liquor with lively aromatic lift. The bergamot is fragrant and expressive, bringing the unmistakable citrus-floral character that defines a fine Earl Grey.
The Ceylon base keeps the cup structured and refreshing, preventing the blend from feeling heavy or overly perfumed. The result is crisp, smooth and beautifully composed.
A Premium Earl Grey for Everyday and Occasion Drinking
This Reserve blend has enough polish to feel special, yet remains wonderfully versatile. It is equally suited to a quiet afternoon cup, a more elegant breakfast tea or a cooling iced serve in warmer weather.
For Earl Grey drinkers who want a fuller, more considered loose leaf version, this is an excellent choice.

Delicious Black, with Milk or with Lemon
Served black, the bergamot fragrance and brisk Ceylon tea character come through most clearly. A small splash of milk softens the cup while keeping the citrus note pleasantly present.
A slice of lemon adds further brightness and suits the tea particularly well. Brewed stronger and poured over ice, it also makes a refreshing summer Earl Grey with excellent aromatic lift.
How to Brew Earl Grey Reserve with Cornflowers
Use freshly boiled water at 100°C and add one heaped teaspoon per cup. Steep for 3 to 4 minutes.
For a lighter, especially bright cup served without milk, try a slightly shorter brew of around 2½ to 3 minutes. For iced Earl Grey, brew double strength, then pour directly over plenty of ice.
