Earl Grey Supreme Review
Don't just take our word for it that our Earl Grey Supreme is the best Earl Grey around! Below is a review from one of our customers, who purchased this tea in our Winchester store:
What an experience we had today, the gentleman who served us was a true tea lover, his knowledge of the whole tea life cycle have such a profound effect on us we could not wait to try a pot of Earl Grey Supreme WOW! Sadly a local Portsmouth tea company has lost a client but Char has gained our support and custom. Go to Char it is a truly magical tea emporium. Thank you Char, see you soon.

What is the origin of Earl Grey?
The original Earl Grey tea consisted of pure China tea lightly flavoured with fine bergamot oil. The bergamot flavouring was intended to protect the tea from the taste of mould and tar, which could arise from the long sea journey to England. Char's Earl Grey Supreme now sets the standard for those who seek the best Earl Grey tea. It is made from a base of superb quality Ceylon tea, expertly perfumed with the finest bergamot oil and decorated with cornflower petals. It is full bodied, rich in flavour and with a striking appearance. It is suitable for those who enjoy their tea with milk, as this will not overwhelm the flavour.
There is no alternative.
