Old Hill Earl Grey Tea
An exquisite black tea, infused with the oils from the bergamot Orange.
One of the most famous and easily recognisable flavours in the tea world, Earl Grey tea is historically so loved. Our blend has slightly more bergamot oil than most, resulting in an exquisitely citrusy cup. Scattered with beautiful, deep blue cornflowers, this tea lifts every sense.
The only truly beautiful thing about Old Hill is its name. Conjuring images of ancient wisdom and forgotten times, we are left to ponder if there is more to it than meets the eye.
Our Old Hill sits in the middle of nowhere with paths that carry no recognisable nor memorable feature. But the slopes are gentle and the views beautifully calm. On a clear summer’s day you can see all the way to the sea over the rolling South Hams.
Loose Leaf or Bio Pyramids?
This tea is available in loose form or in our beautiful bio pyramids. Our biodegradable tea pyramids are suitable for composting and are completely free of microplastics. Made from a material called SOILON which contains lactic acid derived from corn starch, they are completely biodegradable and decompose within 30 days.
The dangers posed by microplastics on the environment are well documented. What people are less aware of are the staggering amounts of microplastics present in most tea bags. When steeped in hot water, they release billions of microplastic particles into the mug, each one the size of a grain of pollen.
When purchased in loose form, this tea is sealed within a biodegradable cornstarch pouch. So when buying our teas, whether in loose or pyramid form, you can do so safe in the knowledge that our tea bags and packaging materials are completely biodegradeable and free of microplastics.
