An incredible earl grey tea powder from Sri Lanka, predominantly from the Nuwara Eliya, Sabaragamuwa and Uva regions (නුවරඑළිය, සබරගමුව සහ නුවර)

 

This imperial grade earl grey tea powder from Sri Lanka blended with an extremely high quality, cold-pressed bergamot oil and it makes an incredible milk tea or latte and can be used all your fine dining-style desserts. This will probably be on a Michelin-starred menu one day as it has so much depth to it

 

Just a note: the bergamot oil reduces the surface tension and microfoam stability (throwback to high school physics). Something to keep in mind if you want to make a nice looking microfoam for the 'gram - you gotta to take those photos quickly 📸


It's the first earl grey tea powder that you can get in New Zealand and also probably some of the highest quality earl grey powder in the world


This was the mystery tea powder - april 2026 🎁

Received this as a free sample - thanks Ed! Makes an excellent earl grey tea latte, lovely bergamot aroma. A little goes a long way.
