Earl Grey Tea - Loose Leaf
Category: Loose Leaf Tea
Indulge in a masterfully refined expression of a timeless British classic: Earl Grey Metro Blend Coarse Loose Leaf Tea. This elegant composition features a premium black tea foundation seamlessly infused with the crisp, invigorating essence of pure, organic-compliant bergamot citrus oil. Poured into your cup, it reveals a brilliant, shimmering coppery hue and throws an unbelievable, deeply aromatic bouquet. Beautifully accented with striking blue cornflower petals, this blend delivers a remarkably smooth, well-rounded body defined by a mild, pleasant astringency and a refreshing, bright citrus finish.
The Metro Terroir Foundation: Structural Balance & Purity
The secret to our Metro Blend's celebrated depth lies in its precise, multi-origin botanical architecture. Our tea masters unify robust, maltier lots from premier Chinese and Indian estates with the bright, floral high-grown leaves harvested from Sri Lanka's most renowned tea districts. This strategic blend provides a sturdy, flavor-dense canvas that perfectly carries the volatile citrus top notes of the bergamot without becoming overpowered. The addition of natural cornflower petals provides a beautiful visual contrast to the coarse-cut leaves and softens the blend's mouthfeel, creating an exquisite, boutique-grade afternoon tea experience optimized for the discerning palate.
