Description

A Regal Tea Experience

In order to preserve the pure Italian Bergamot oil we recommend storing our Empress of Peking in an air-tight container.

Indulge in the timeless elegance of Empress of Peking, a truly exceptional tea that has captivated tea connoisseurs for generations. This traditionally hand-blended masterpiece is crafted using a historic recipe, passed down through the generations, to deliver a unique and refined flavour profile.

We have taken our renowned Famous Earl Grey blend to new heights by incorporating the vibrant zest of orange peel and lemon peel. This exquisite addition creates a lighter, more refreshing infusion, while still retaining the signature bergamot flavour that our Famous Earl Grey is beloved for. The result is a harmonious blend that offers a delightful balance of citrusy brightness and soothing Earl Grey notes.

To savour the full spectrum of flavours, Empress of Peking is best enjoyed black. However, for a truly regal experience, consider adding a slice of fresh lemon to enhance the citrusy notes and elevate the overall taste.

Whether you are seeking a vibrant start to the day or a sophisticated treat, Empress of Peking is the perfect choice. Immerse yourself in the rich history and exquisite taste of this extraordinary tea.
