Category: Earl Grey

Puerh Earl Grey pairs light and dark flavors. Any tea drinker will recognize the citrusy bergamot front flavor.

Puerh is aged and fermented Chinese tea, often described as dark, musty, or earthy. So, the ingredients hold opposite ends of the flavor spectrum. Bergamot shines, elevating the puerh earthiness into the realm of floral aromatics. As a result, our Puerh Earl Grey wins praise. Sip for a brighter puerh tea, or a deep savory Earl Grey.

Fermented tea has probiotic qualities, making it gentler on the stomach, and giving the tea drinker a fuller, more satisfied feeling. Puerh is also good for re-steeps, so you can brew 2 or 3 cups with every serving of this tea.

These trees range from 700 to 1,000 years old. And since they grow in a natural rainforest, the tea leaves provide a wide range of antioxidants and nutrients. One more reason to love this new classic.

A made in Montana tea.

Steven S. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about mixing aged puerh with bergamot, but the citrus cuts through that musty earthiness perfectly. Brewed it for about three minutes and the cup turned surprisingly smooth, with the dark fermented notes lingering underneath.

Emily ★★★★★

That earthy puerh base with the bright bergamot on top is such a clever pairing, I wasn't sure they'd work together but it's surprisingly smooth. The citrus really cuts through the mustiness without overpowering it, and it makes a great afternoon cup.

Violet ★★★★☆

The earthy puerh really balances the citrus instead of letting the bergamot run wild, which I appreciate after trying lighter earl greys. The brew turns a deep amber and steeps fairly forgivingly, though I wish the musty note was a touch stronger for my taste.
