Our scented teas range from classic British favourites such as Earl Grey to floral Chinese teas and aromatic Japanese green tea blends, offering a remarkable variety of flavour profiles and drinking experiences.

Earl Grey & Citrus Scented Teas

Perhaps the world's most famous scented tea style, Earl Grey combines premium black tea with the distinctive aroma of bergamot oil. The result is a bright, elegant and refreshing tea that remains a favourite among tea lovers worldwide. Try our Earl Grey Supreme for a full-bodied citrus taste.

Floral Scented Teas

Rose, lavender and blossom-inspired teas offer delicate aromas and a softer, more fragrant drinking experience. These teas are perfect for slow afternoons and moments of relaxation.

Scented Green Teas

Japanese and Chinese green teas provide an excellent foundation for floral and botanical scenting. These blends combine freshness, sweetness and aroma in perfect balance.

What Are Scented Teas?

Scented teas are teas that have been infused with aromas from flowers, fruits, spices, herbs or natural oils.

Unlike standard teas that rely solely on the character of the tea leaf itself, scented teas introduce additional aromatic layers that enhance both the fragrance and flavour of the finished cup.

Some traditional scented teas are created by placing tea leaves alongside flowers, allowing the leaves to naturally absorb their fragrance. Others use carefully selected natural oils and botanicals to achieve their distinctive character.

Scented Tea Vs Flavoured Tea: What's The Difference?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but there can be subtle differences.

Traditionally, scented teas focus on aroma. Tea leaves absorb fragrance from flowers, blossoms or essential oils during production.

Flavoured teas generally focus more on taste and may include fruits, spices, botanicals or flavouring ingredients designed to alter the flavour profile of the tea itself.

Many modern blends combine both approaches, creating teas that are simultaneously aromatic and flavourful.

The World's Most Famous Scented Tea Styles

Earl Grey

A black tea scented with bergamot oil that has become one of the most recognisable tea styles in the world.

Rose Tea

Combines premium tea leaves with delicate rose aromas to create a smooth, elegant and highly fragrant cup.

Blossom & Floral Teas

Inspired by flowers such as lavender, sakura and jasmine, these teas are prized for their subtle aromas and refined character.

Why Aroma Matters In Tea

Much of what we perceive as flavour actually comes from aroma.

When you lift a freshly brewed cup of scented tea, the aromatic compounds reach your senses before the tea touches your lips. This creates a richer and more immersive drinking experience, which is why scented teas remain so popular among tea enthusiasts seeking something beyond an ordinary brew.
