The Earl Grey You Upgrade To

69° Earl Grey Supreme begins at elevation.
This loose leaf Earl Grey is crafted using high-altitude Himalayan black tea grown around 6,500 feet in Ilam, Nepal. Cooler mountain air. Slower leaf growth. Lower tannins. Natural sweetness.
Then we infuse it with natural bergamot to create refined citrus lift that enhances. Never overwhelms.
If you are searching for the best Earl Grey tea online, this is the premium version serious tea drinkers choose.
Why This Earl Grey Tastes Different
Commodity Earl Grey often uses broken black tea. The result can taste flat or sharply bitter.
Our base tea is whole-leaf and golden-tippy. The leaves are carefully oxidized to develop depth and texture. Slow growth at high elevation builds body without heaviness.
The result? Smooth mouthfeel. Creamy malt backbone. Balanced astringency. No harsh citrus bite. Elegant finish.
This is high-end loose leaf Earl Grey tea crafted for buyers who value leaf quality.
Flavor Profile
Aroma: Fresh bergamot layered over warm malt.
Body: Medium-bodied. Velvety and structured.
Taste: Rich malt. Toasted almond. Soft fruit undertones.
Top Note: Bright natural bergamot citrus.
Finish: Clean. Refined. Lingering.
The citrus lifts the cup. The Himalayan black tea carries it.
No artificial aftertaste. No overwhelming perfume.
High-Altitude Black Tea Makes the Difference
Tea grown at higher elevations develops more complexity naturally.
At approximately 6,500 feet, leaves mature slowly. Aromatics concentrate without intervention. Tannins remain smoother. Texture becomes creamier.
That refined base transforms this from ordinary Earl Grey into premium Himalayan Earl Grey.

A Connoisseur’s Take
Golden-tipped whole Himalayan black tea infused with natural bergamot releases an aroma that immediately fills the air with bright citrus zest layered over warm malt and toasted almond. When you open the pack, you’ll notice the vivid freshness of bergamot peel intertwined with deep, honeyed black tea notes and a gentle floral lift.
The liquor brews into a glowing amber-gold cup with a smooth, slightly thick texture that feels refined and structured. It is full-bodied yet polished.
Tasting notes mirror the aroma. Rich malty sweetness forms the foundation. Fresh bergamot citrus rises naturally without overpowering. Subtle hints of roasted nuts and soft fruit develop mid-palate. The finish lingers with a clean, elegant citrus warmth and a creamy black tea aftertaste that feels smooth rather than sharp. A classic Earl Grey profile elevated by high-altitude Himalayan craftsmanship.
Methods to Brew Tea
We believe that your tea experience should be completely personal. Individual taste buds are unique and there is no right or wrong way to brew tea. Therefore we encourage tea lovers to not necessarily bind to traditional methods but let their experience, and discovery guide them. After all, that is where the joy of drinking tea lies. You should try different amounts of tea, steeping time, and water temperature to find the perfect taste you’ll fall in love with.

Iced teas
Can you make sweet/ unsweet iced teas from loose-leaf teas?
Of course, you can! High-quality loose-leaf teas make the most refreshing iced teas—smooth, crisp, and oh-so-quenching!
While some might call it blasphemous to add sweetener/sugar to high-quality loose-leaf teas, here in Texas, where sweet iced tea is a beloved tradition, we have been using our loose-leaf to uplift the iced tea experience.
We have tried and perfected the art of turning your favorite loose-leaf tea into a delicious iced delight.
It's time to try it for yourself. Here's how we do it:
Pro tip: Feel free to experiment with water amounts, temperature, steeping time, tea quantity, and sweetener quantity to find your perfect balance.
Steep suggestions for iced teas:
Amount of Water: 2 Liters
Amount of Loose Tea: 10-12 grams (5-6 teaspoons)
Steeping Time: 15-20 minutes
Steeping Temperature: 190-2000°F
| Steps to Brew Iced Tea: |
|---|
| Step 1: Start with a 2-liter batch. Boil water, then remove it from heat. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes until it's around 190-200°F. |
| Step 2: Add loose-leaf tea. Add 10 to 12 grams of your favorite loose-leaf tea OR 5 to 6 teaspoons. |
| Step 3: Steep the tea. Steep for 15-20 minutes (or longer if you prefer a stronger brew). |
| Step 4: Strain and cool. Strain the tea, then let it cool down. Add ice. (Pro tip: For best flavor, let it chill in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. Add ice when you drink.) |
| Step 5: Sweeten to taste. Add your favorite sweetener, but remember that balance is key—don’t let the sweetener overpower the tea’s flavor. (Pro tip: As you sip, let the tea linger in your mouth for a couple of seconds to fully enjoy its rich flavors.) |
