Earl Grey ... the Amsterdam way.
Morning, afternoon or evening, this quality tea is delicious at any time of the day. Amsterdam Earl Grey is milder than the traditional Earl Grey and contains less tannin. It is a smooth and rich black tea that is perfectly complemented by the citrusy bergamot.
The Amsterdam Earl Grey tea has a delicate and fresh taste, with the perfect balance between the sweetness of black tea and the subtle citrus flavours of bergamot. This tea has a light body and bright colour. The aroma is subtle and inviting, making you feel like taking a sip. The taste is not too strong or spicy, but rather refined and balanced.
The strength of Amsterdam Earl Grey tea depends on the brewing time and the amount of tea you use. If you steep the tea longer than the recommended time of 3-4 minutes, the flavour may become stronger and more intense. It is important not to let the tea steep too long to avoid the flavour becoming too bitter. For the optimal taste experience, we recommend using 2 grams of tea per 200 ml of water and letting it steep for 3-4 minutes at a temperature of 95 degrees Celsius.
