Description

Birchall Loose Leaf Tea – Virunga Earl Grey (250g) is a bright and fragrant single-origin tea, grown close to Rwanda’s iconic Virunga National Park. Winner of a prestigious Great Taste Award and fully Rainforest Alliance Certified™, this premium Earl Grey offers a refined balance of rich black tea and delicate citrus notes.

Expertly sourced from the finest high-altitude tea gardens in Rwanda, the leaves are hand-plucked using the ‘perfect pick’ method, selecting the leaf, bud, and tender stem for optimal flavour. These are then scented with traditional bergamot oil and complemented by vibrant cornflower petals, creating a distinctive Earl Grey with a smooth, aromatic character.

Where is the bergamot

I was disappinted because, although the Earl Grey packet smells of bergamot, there isn't a trace of it in the brewed tea. Very little tea is needed because it is very strong

Had better

Taste is such a subjective thing but this wasn’t the bergamot hit that I had hoped for. Tasted bright and fresh but the leaves were small, the type expected in your average tea bag, and as I said, needed more bergamot hit.
