Supreme by name, Supreme by nature!
The Earl Grey Supreme is just the best. I have been drinking numerous brands of EG for decades but this one stands out by the proverbial mile!

Hello, Faiq
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that our Supreme Earl Grey stands out as your favourite, especially given your decades of experience with so many different brands.
We take great pride in selecting the high-quality, rolled wiry leaves to create that rich, well-rounded, yet delicate flavour profile and beautiful golden-amber colour. It is incredibly rewarding to know that its bright, citrusy, and floral qualities hit the mark for you.
Thank you for sharing your love for our blend, we are honoured to be your tea supplier, happy brewing!
Many Thanks,
The Tea Makers of London

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you love our teas and that they keep you coming back.
We are truly sorry for the unexpected surprise with the increased fees on this order. International customs fees and import duties are unfortunately controlled entirely by local government authorities, so they can sometimes fluctuate without much warning.
We want every part of your experience with us to be wonderful, so we appreciate your understanding on this matter. Thank you again for being a valued customer, and we look forward to packing up your next favourite teas soon!
Many Thanks,

First time with company and Ali Shan tea
Presentation is good with it's own caddy which is nice. The tea is not as ready to be infused as some I've had, but it's flavour was delicious despite the wait. Perhaps try a different infuser next time.
19 June 2026
Reply from The Tea Makers of London
Hello, Mrs Gillespie
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the delicious flavour profile of our Ali Shan Oolong and that you appreciated the presentation of the caddy.
Because our Ali Shan tea leaves are tightly rolled into pellets, traditional for high mountain Jin Xuan Oolongs, they do take a little extra time to slowly unfurl and release their full, buttery sweetness and apricot notes.
Your idea to experiment with a different infuser is spot on! For tightly rolled leaves, we highly recommend using a spacious infuser basket or a teapot, rather than a small tea ball. Giving the leaves plenty of room to expand allows the water to circulate freely, which should help speed up the infusion process and deliver that exquisite flavour even faster.
Thank you again for your review, and happy brewing!
Many Thanks,
The Tea Makers of London

Fabulous tea, impeccable service, easy to order. Who could ask for more?
Fabulous tea, impeccable service, easy to order...who could ask for more? Truly, some of the finest teas I've ever tasted. I was introduced to their teas at the Montague on the Park hotel in London. Their teas are authentic and delicious. I live in California and, after the disruption caused by the current usa government, am loving being able to get their tea again. Quick, easy order and 4 day delivery from the UK! Brilliant!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your delightful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that our back in stock notification worked seamlessly for you and that your order arrived swiftly.
Our authentic, aged raw Pu-erh is truly labour of love, from the meticulous sun drying and five year aging process in the Yunnan province to the rich, earthy infusion in your cup. It is wonderful to know that its complex, musky characters were so enthusiastically enjoyed!

I was having Pu err in France and I found very difficult to have it here . I have both the block and the loose one and I do not want any other tea now, apart from herbal teas.It is not just the flavour. It really makes me feel well and I am now more and more having it instead of coffee in the morning. And the presentation is so good. Thank you for the nice box gift with a selection of teas !
