The Grand Earl Grey is an absolute top blend of the finest, high-grown Ceylon teas and downy, white Yinzhen tips (Silver Needles).
Recommendations: Use 1 level tsp. per 6 oz. cup; heat fresh water to a boil; let steep for 3 min.
This is a top notch Earl Grey. It is sweet, I assume becasue of the white tips, so I use less sugar, and truthfully, it needs less milk too. It’s light, sweet, complicated, and lively. This is a truly wonderful tea.
Best Earl Grey ever. Seriously. I have tried a dozen varieties, at least, and never found another one to compare to this.
Unfortunately, specialteas.com has gone out of business, sold to Teavana. I have been trying everything to find this tea sold by someone else, but everyone I have found was just buying it from specialteas.
I am running low, and I don’t know what I’m going to do.
