It’s the ideal blend for a brisk autumn afternoon, evoking the feeling of sunlight breaking through Autumn foliage. The tea’s rich, malty undertones and the hint of bergamot provide a harmonious balance that is both invigorating and comforting, making it a versatile choice for any time of day.
How to Enjoy It:
Golden Earl Grey is best enjoyed on its own to savuor its nuanced flavours, or with a splash of milk and a touch of honey for a creamier, soothing experience. Pair it with buttery scones, shortbread, or any seasonal pastries to create a delightful afternoon tea moment.
