What is Cream of Earl Grey tea?

Cream of Earl Grey is a smooth black tea made with whole-leaf Ceylon tea, fragrant bergamot, and creamy vanilla notes. It’s a softer, more comforting twist on classic Earl Grey.

Does Cream of Earl Grey contain caffeine?

Yes. This tea contains a moderate amount of caffeine because it’s made with black tea, making it suitable for mornings or afternoons.

What does Cream of Earl Grey taste like?

It tastes smooth and comforting, with bright citrus bergamot, gentle malt from Ceylon black tea, and a soft, creamy vanilla finish. Cornflower petals add a subtle floral touch.

What are the ingredients in Cream of Earl Grey?

Ingredients are black tea, cornflower petals, and natural flavours (organic compliant). The natural flavours include bergamot and vanilla.

Where is the black tea in this blend from?

The black tea is whole-leaf Ceylon tea from the Dimbula region of Sri Lanka, known for producing bright, aromatic, well-balanced black teas.

How do I brew Cream of Earl Grey for the best results?

Use 1 pyramid tea bag per 8 fl oz (240 ml) of water at about 95°C and steep for 3–5 minutes. Steep longer for a bolder cup or shorter for a lighter, creamier finish.

Is this tea good for making a London Fog?

Yes. Cream of Earl Grey is excellent for a London Fog. Brew it strong, add steamed milk, and sweeten to taste—maple syrup is a delicious Canadian-inspired option.

Are the pyramid tea bags eco-friendly?

Yes. The pyramid tea bags are plant-based and biodegradable, and the shape allows the whole leaves to expand for a richer, more aromatic infusion.

Why you’ll love it

This Cream of Earl Grey offers the best of both worlds: the richness and aroma of loose-leaf tea with the convenience of a tea bag. The pyramid sachets give the leaves space to unfurl, resulting in a smooth, robust infusion in just minutes.

The bright citrus notes of bergamot pair beautifully with creamy vanilla, creating a comforting cup that’s delicious on its own, with milk, or as a classic London Fog — especially lovely with a touch of real Canadian maple syrup. With moderate caffeine and naturally occurring antioxidants, it’s a tea you can enjoy anytime inspiration strikes.
