Tea Bags Earl Grey — Mate & Co
Tea Bags Earl Grey — Mate & Co is a refined interpretation of one of the world’s most beloved classic teas. Defined by its signature infusion of bergamot oil — a bright, aromatic citrus — this blend delivers a beautifully balanced cup where fragrance, depth, and drinkability work in harmony. Mate & Co’s version elevates the traditional profile, offering citrus uplift without bitterness and tea strength without heaviness.
Built on a high-quality black tea base, this Earl Grey is smooth, structured, and full-bodied, yet never overpowering. The natural bergamot notes sit gently on top, bringing floral brightness, subtle zest, and a polished finish that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
Packaged in convenient, individually portioned tea bags, this blend is designed for everyday enjoyment while still delivering a premium, café-worthy experience. Whether brewed at home, in the office, or on the go, each cup feels intentional, aromatic, and elevated.
The Mate & Co Approach to Earl Grey
While many commercial Earl Grey teas lean too heavily on artificial citrus or overly bitter tea bases, Mate & Co takes a more nuanced approach. The bergamot is carefully calibrated to enhance rather than dominate, allowing the natural maltiness and warmth of the black tea to shine through.
The result is a well-rounded, modern Earl Grey that appeals to both traditional tea lovers and those new to the style. It is aromatic enough to feel special, yet balanced enough for daily drinking.
This blend also performs beautifully across different serving styles — enjoyable black, lightly sweetened, or with a splash of milk, making it versatile for a range of preferences.
