Description

Birchall Loose Leaf Tea – Virunga Earl Grey (250g) is a bright and fragrant single-origin tea, grown close to Rwanda’s iconic Virunga National Park. Winner of a prestigious Great Taste Award and fully Rainforest Alliance Certified™, this premium Earl Grey offers a refined balance of rich black tea and delicate citrus notes.

Expertly sourced from the finest high-altitude tea gardens in Rwanda, the leaves are hand-plucked using the ‘perfect pick’ method, selecting the leaf, bud, and tender stem for optimal flavour. These are then scented with traditional bergamot oil and complemented by vibrant cornflower petals, creating a distinctive Earl Grey with a smooth, aromatic character.

  • Hand-Plucked Perfection: Crafted using only the finest leaf, bud, and stem.

  • Suitable for Vegetarians: Yes

Tea & hot chocolate for trade — quick answers

Will this work with our machine?

Most of the range is machine-independent — kettle, boiler or steam wand. If you're pairing powders with a bean-to-cup or instant ingredient machine, call the trade team and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

How do I work out cost per serve?

Divide the pack price by the serves per pack shown in the description — or use our cost-per-cup calculator to model the full drink including milk and cup.

Is there a minimum order?

No — order single packs or by the case. Tea, hot chocolate, coffee and syrups can travel in one order, delivered together to UK mainland addresses.

Can we taste before switching?

Yes — request a trade sample pack and tell us what you serve today; we'll match a selection to your menu and volumes.

Where is the bergamot

I was disappinted because, although the Earl Grey packet smells of bergamot, there isn't a trace of it in the brewed tea. Very little tea is needed because it is very strong

Had better

Taste is such a subjective thing but this wasn’t the bergamot hit that I had hoped for. Tasted bright and fresh but the leaves were small, the type expected in your average tea bag, and as I said, needed more bergamot hit.
