A drop of sweet rapture. This sophisticated blend of black tea perfectly pairs soft notes of jasmine, woven with bright bergamot citrus. The mildly fragrant jasmine adds an elegant touch to this beautiful Earl Grey enhanced with sweet pear flavours. Crafted with sophisticated taste buds in mind, it's a prestigious member of our Earl Grey tea family and a favourite afternoon tea choice. You may not be a Monk, but this tea will have you praising a higher being.

I love the Monks Pear; a beautiful grey, fragrant without being too floral. My favourite from The Art of Tea!

First tasted this on a work trip and increasingly hard to find. Thankfully Art of Tea has the answer. A strong flavoured tea with bold bergamot flavours. Great for a Saturday newspaper read.

I enjoy the restrained, delicate flavour of Monks Pear; I find it comforting.

Colleen (Australia)

Its refreshing. A light black tea with a herbaceous after taste - not pear or jasmine, whatever it is I like it.

A lovely, fragrant blend, my absolute favourite and the Art of tea is a friendly professional company with great communication.

Monks Pear has been my favourite for many years with a lovely aroma and the subtle taste of fruit.

OMG my new favourite! I thought French Earl Grey was the best, then Premium Earl Grey…but I just love this tea... AND it’s so lovely with fruit and Brie cheese!
