Art of Tea Earl Grey Crème Loose Leaf Black Tea 2.5 oz Tin — Bergamot & Vanilla, Smooth London Fog Blend

This small-batch blend pairs classic Earl Grey character with a rounded vanilla cream note to deliver a smoother, dessert-like black tea experience. Packaged in an elegant 2.5 oz reusable tin, the tea preserves freshness while making storage and gifting simple. Use an infuser, teapot, or milk-based method to bring out the warm citrus and creamy layers in every steep.

What tasting profile should I expect from this Earl Grey Crème?

The cup opens with the familiar citrusy lift of bergamot carried on a foundation of robust black tea. Midpalate develops soft vanilla cream, which tempers tannins and yields a silky mouthfeel. Finish is balanced and lightly sweet rather than sharp.

• Top notes: bright bergamot citrus
• Base: full-bodied black tea leaves
• Accent: natural vanilla cream for smoothness
• Finish: gentle, lingering sweetness

How do I brew it for the best flavor and for a London Fog latte?

For a classic cup, steep one teaspoon per 8 oz of water at 200–205°F for 3–4 minutes to extract balanced flavor without excessive bitterness. To make a London Fog, brew a slightly stronger infusion, steam or froth milk of choice, and combine to taste with a touch of sweetener.

• Loose-leaf measure: ~1 tsp per 8 oz
• Water temp: near boiling (200–205°F / 93–96°C)
• Steep time: 3–4 minutes for balanced cup
• London Fog: 1.5x tea strength + steamed milk + sweetener

How is the tea packaged and how should I store it?

The tea arrives in a 2.5-ounce reusable metal tin that reduces light and air exposure to help keep the leaves fresh. After opening, keep the tin tightly closed in a cool, dry location away from strong odors to maintain aroma and flavor. The tin also works well for travel or countertop display.

• 2.5 oz reusable metal storage tin
• Tight-seal lid protects from light and air
• Store in a cool, dry place away from odors
• Reusable for refills or small-item storage

Can I use this tea hot and iced, and is it suitable for daily drinking?

Yes—this blend performs well both hot and iced. Hot brewing highlights the bergamot and vanilla interplay, while cold-brewing softens brightness into a smooth, refreshing iced tea. Because it’s a caffeinated black tea, it’s an excellent option for daily routines where a gentle caffeine boost is desired.

• Hot: classic steeping for full aroma
• Iced: cold-brew or double-strength hot-brew then chill
• Ideal for milk-based lattes like London Fog
• Smooth enough for everyday enjoyment

Who is this for: Art of Tea Earl Grey Crème suits anyone who enjoys classic Earl Grey but prefers a creamier, less astringent profile—tea enthusiasts who like to craft milk-based lattes, those seeking a refined loose-leaf option for gifting, and daily tea drinkers who value small-batch quality and reusable packaging. It’s especially good for home baristas making London Fog lattes or for people who want a polished, aromatic black tea without needing elaborate preparation.
