Our Earl Grey Classic gives two old friends opportunity to shine – citrus and delicious tea. This cup offers you vibrant, bold notes.

Earl Grey, the world’s most popular tea blend, requires only two ingredients: black tea and bergamot. This Mediterranean citrus thrives in only a few regions of the world, but ever since it hooked up with Earl Grey, it has landed teacups in every corner of the globe.

Famously named after Charles Grey, a British prime minister in the 1830s. According to lore, the flavored tea was a gift. Others say he rescued a Chinese Mandarin from drowning—even though Charles never traveled to China. Others claim the bergamot was added to mimic a top-notch cultivar.

Lake Missoula Tea Company served Earl Grey Classic at its grand opening in 2012! Go ahead, reminisce about the old days, and check out our former retail space. Those were the days…

A made in Montana tea.

Julian ★★★★★

I brewed this first thing this morning and the bold citrus notes kept me going through a long meeting, the vibrancy really does wake up your palate. It’s easily become my daily go-to, simple and consistent every time.

Charlotte W. ★★★★★

The citrus kick hits right up front and then settles into that bold, classic tea body without turning bitter. I’ve been brewing it every afternoon this week and the vibrancy holds up even after the cup cools.

Scarlett E. ★★★★★

I was a bit worried the bergamot would overpower the tea, but this balances the citrus with a rich, smooth base perfectly. The bold flavor really comes through whether I brew it hot or let it go cold for iced tea.
