What does Amsterdam Earl Grey Tea Package taste like?

The taste of Amsterdam Earl Grey Tea Package is like a soft morning breeze through the canals of Amsterdam. It is a subtle interplay of flavors that caresses your taste buds without overwhelming.

The basis of this blend is fine Ceylon tea, known for its clear, rich yet soft character. This black tea forms a solid base with subtle hints of citrus and woody notes.

On top of that comes the characteristic twist of bergamot oil. This oil, extracted from the peel of the bergamot fruit, gives the tea a fresh, citrusy note that is both refreshing and calming. Unlike traditional Earl Grey, where the bergamot flavor is often dominant, the bergamot is subtly present in our Amsterdam variant. It offers just enough freshness to give the tea its own character, without overshadowing the rich taste of the Ceylon tea.

The combination of these two ingredients results in a tea that is both familiar and innovative. It is a tea that will appeal to both purists and adventurous tea drinkers. The taste is a balance between sweet and bitter, with an underlying spiciness that increases the complexity of the blend.

A cup of Amsterdam Earl Grey is a taste experience that takes you on a journey through different taste sensations. From the first fruity, fresh notes to the deep, full aftertaste, every sip is a discovery.

How strong is Amsterdam Earl Grey Tea Package?

The strength of Amsterdam Earl Grey Tea Pack is like the setting sun over the Amsterdam canals: noticeable, but not overwhelming. This tea offers a perfect balance of strength and subtlety, making it an ideal choice for both morning and evening.

As with most black teas, the strength of Amsterdam Earl Grey can be adjusted to personal preference. A shorter steeping time results in a lighter, subtler cup of tea, while a longer steeping time produces a richer and stronger flavor.

However, thanks to the unique composition of our Amsterdam Earl Grey, with less tannin and a mild Ceylon base, the tea never becomes too bitter, even with a longer steeping time. This makes it an excellent choice for those who like a stronger tea without the bitterness that often comes with it.

The key to perfect strength lies in the preparation method. Use fresh, boiled water and let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on how strong you want the tea. Due to the gentle nature of this tea, you can even experiment with a slightly longer steeping time to bring out the deeper notes of both the Ceylon tea and the bergamot oil.

In essence, Amsterdam Earl Grey is a versatile tea that adapts to your taste. Whether you like a light, refreshing tea in the afternoon, or a strong, deep cup in the evening, Amsterdam Earl Gray meets your needs.

How do you brew Amsterdam Earl Grey?

Brewing a perfect cup of Amsterdam Earl Grey is simple, but requires attention to detail to bring out the subtle flavors.

Start with fresh water, preferably filtered, to ensure the purest taste. Bring the water to a boil and then let it cool for a minute. This prevents the hot water from burning the delicate flavors of the tea.

For an optimal taste experience, use approximately one teaspoon (or a tea scoop) of Amsterdam Earl Grey per cup. Place the tea in the included tea tongs and immerse it in the hot water.

Let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes. A shorter steeping time produces a lighter flavor, while a longer steeping time produces a deeper, more intense profile. Experiment with steeping time to find your perfect cup.

Once the tea has reached the desired strength, remove the tea tongs. Your tea is now ready to enjoy. You can choose to drink the tea neat or add a little bit of milk or lemon to further enrich the taste. Adding milk softens the taste, while lemon accentuates the citrus notes of the bergamot.

Serving Amsterdam Earl Grey in a transparent tea cup can enhance the experience. This way you can not only enjoy the taste, but also the rich, amber glow that the tea radiates.
