Black tea diplomat blend

Black Tea Diplomat's Blend: Classic Earl Grey enhanced with lemongrass and grapefruit.

Our Diplomatenmischung black tea is an elegant evolution of the classic Earl Grey. The time-tested base of select black teas from Ceylon, South India, and China is elevated to a new level by the fresh aroma of lemongrass and zesty grapefruit. The result is a tea that is both familiar and surprisingly new. Anyone who loves classic Earl Grey will instantly fall in love with the Diplomat Blend.

This tea is therefore an ideal choice for all black tea drinkers who want to try something new every now and then. The lemongrass adds a fresh, lemony note that harmoniously complements the typical bergamot flavor of Earl Grey. The grapefruit note also gives the tea a pleasant, slightly bitter-fresh zest that wonderfully highlights the character of the black tea. Together, this creates a blend that delights discerning tea lovers as well as newcomers.

The "Diplomat's Blend" black tea is also a wonderful way to rediscover classic black tea. Its fine ingredients transform a familiar tea into a new and special taste experience that you'll want to enjoy again and again.

Ceylon, South India, and China come together—Earl Grey with fresh notes of lemongrass and grapefruit.

Ceylon black tea adds a lively, fresh note to the blend. South Indian black tea complements it with strength and richness. Finally, Chinese black tea rounds out the base with a delicate, mild character. Together, these three teas form a balanced foundation that perfectly highlights the lemongrass aroma and grapefruit notes.

The lemongrass gives the tea a fresh, lemony vibrancy that makes it particularly pleasant and light. The grapefruit note also complements the blend with a delicate, zesty zest. When brewed at 100°C and steeped for 3–5 minutes, this tea reveals its full aromatic potential. Those who prefer a stronger flavor can extend the steeping time accordingly.

Our recommendation: Green Tea with Ginger and Lemon.

Be sure to try our Green Tea with Ginger and Lemon as well—its spicy freshness and zesty citrus notes are sure to delight you.
