Perchs Iconics Queens Blend. Voller Earl Grey mit Gunpowder für Königin Margrethe.
Perchs Iconics Queens Blend ist die Kopenhagener Variante eines Earl Grey mit kräftiger Ceylon-Basis, ergänzt um etwas grünen Gunpowder und der dänischen Königin Margrethe gewidmet. Kein Grüntee, kein Teebeutel, kein Kräuteraufguss.
Perchs Iconics Queens Blend verbindet einen kräftigen Ceylon Orange Pekoe, der in Sri Lanka wächst, mit einer kleinen Menge Gunpowder aus China und Bergamotte-Aroma. A.C. Perch's beschreibt die Mischung als Abwandlung des klassischen Earl Grey, nur voller im Körper. Im Aufguss leuchtet sie kupferbraun. Der Duft gehört der Bergamotte, die Kraft dem Ceylon.
Mehr Körper als ein gewöhnlicher Earl Grey
Der Queens Blend trinkt sich vollmundig und kräftig, mit einem klaren Bergamotteduft über der Schwarzteebasis. Ein gewöhnlicher Earl Grey wirkt daneben schlanker. Als Earl Grey gilt jeder Schwarztee, den das Aroma der Zitrusfrucht Bergamotte prägt. Die Ceylon-Blätter sorgen für Tiefe, die Bergamotte für ein weiches Zitrusaroma.
Vom grünen Gunpowder enthält die Mischung nur einen kleinen Anteil. Er hellt den Schwarztee spürbar auf, ohne selbst in den Vordergrund zu treten. So bleibt die Tasse kräftig und wirkt trotzdem frisch.
Wer Grüntee sucht, für den ist der Queens Blend nicht geeignet. Sein Charakter bleibt der eines kräftigen Schwarztees mit Bergamotte. Freunde zarter, heller Aufgüsse finden in der Iconics-Reihe passendere Sorten.
Sechs bis sieben Minuten bei 100 Grad
Für den Queens Blend sollte das Wasser sprudelnd kochen, also 100 °C erreichen. Rechnen Sie 6 g Tee auf einen Liter und lassen Sie ihn sechs bis sieben Minuten ziehen.
Während der Tee zieht, entfalten sich die Gunpowder-Perlen. Für diese Sorte wird grüner Tee zu kleinen Kügelchen gerollt, die an Körner von Schwarzpulver erinnern, daher der Name. Im heißen Wasser falten sie sich auf und tragen ihre grüne Note in die Kanne.
Für sehr lange Ziehzeiten ist die Mischung nicht geeignet. Nach mehr als sieben Minuten überdeckt die Herbe des Schwarztees die Bergamotte. Milch rundet den Tee ab, ohne sie bleibt das Zitrusaroma am klarsten.
Morgens begleitet er ein Butterbrot mit Orangenmarmelade. Am Nachmittag passt er zu Scones, Zitronenkuchen oder Shortbread, denn seine Zitrusfrische verträgt sich mit Butter und Gebäck.
Gut zu wissen: Für eine Tasse mit 250 ml reichen 1,5 g Tee. Mit den 75 g in der Dose kommen Sie so auf rund zwölf Liter Tee.
Eine Jubiläumsdose zum 185. Geburtstag
Am 16. April 2020 feierte A.C. Perch's 185 Jahre, und zu diesem Jubiläum erschien die Dose als limitierte Edition. Ihr Inhalt ist Königin Margrethe gewidmet, die im Januar 2024 abdankte.
Gegründet hat das Teehaus Niels Brock Perch im Jahr 1835. Tee war damals ein wichtiges Handelsgut in Kopenhagen. Teeladungen der Asiatischen Kompanie landeten aus Kanton in Christianshavn. Bis heute ist das Geschäft in Familienhand.
In der Iconics-Reihe füllt das Haus beliebte Sorten und Jahreszeitenmischungen in kleine Motivdosen, jede mit eigener Schachtel. Die Motive nehmen häufig Orte aus Kopenhagen auf. Gemischt wird nach wie vor im Stammhaus in der Kronprinsensgade, wo auch die alte Ladentheke erhalten ist.
Ein königliches Paar für das Teeregal
Mit Schachtel und Dose kommt der Queens Blend bereits geschenkfertig. Er passt zu einer Einladung zum Tee, zum Geburtstag einer Earl-Grey-Liebhaberin oder neben ein Glas Orangenmarmelade in einen Geschenkkorb. Als Vorratspackung für den täglichen Bedarf ist die kleine Dose nicht gedacht. Dafür bietet das Teehaus dieselbe Mischung auch in einer größeren Teedose an. Die 75 g eignen sich eher, um die Sorte in Ruhe kennenzulernen.
Ihr Sohn bekam 2024 seine eigene Mischung, den Kings Blend mit Ingwer und Süßholz. Wer beide Dosen zusammen verschenkt, hält den Thronwechsel in zwei Sorten fest. Eine fruchtige Ergänzung ist der helle Weißtee mit Ananas und Mango. Alle Sorten des Teehauses finden Sie unter A.C. Perch's Thehandel.
Eine Dose für Königin und Frühstückstisch zugleich, gefüllt mit einem Earl Grey, der deutlich mehr Körper zeigt als der Klassiker.

How it all began
Does this sound familiar? You return from vacation with a bottle of olive oil from Portugal in your suitcase, a jar of fruit spread from South Tyrol, perhaps a bar of chocolate from a small factory in France — and you ask yourself: Why can't I find something like this easily at home? We kept asking ourselves this question.
We are Kerstin and Stephan Uhlenbusch from Nordhorn, a city on the German-Dutch border. On our travels through Europe, we made the most wonderful culinary discoveries: mountain apple juices from the high altitudes of South Tyrol, Breton barrel butter, handmade pasta from Italy, French sea salt. It wasn't the big luxury products that fascinated us, but rather the honest, artisan-made foods from people who put their heart and soul into their products.
In 2002, we decided to turn this passion into our profession: to make good food accessible to everyone who cannot travel to the producers themselves. This is how our gourmet shipping business came into being — initially as a store in Nordhorn, soon after as one of the first gourmet online shops in Germany. Back then under the name nur Gutes (only good things) — today we continue it as ginussland.com. The ambition has remained the same: this is where good taste resides.
Who we are
What drives us is the same curiosity with which we started in 2002: finding out who truly makes good food. Over more than two decades, we have built a network — with producers, traders, restaurateurs, and culinary artisans from all over Europe.
Kerstin was the managing director of the association of leading delicatessen merchants in Germany — the industry association of the country's best owner-managed delicatessen stores. In this role, she not only accompanied but actively shaped the German delicatessen industry. With the deli Festival, we also launched our own B2B trade fair for delicacies, which brought together producers, traders, and restaurateurs from all over Europe. The festival no longer exists today — but the relationships that arose from it still accompany us.
What does this mean for you? We know our industry like almost no one else. Chambers of commerce and economic development agencies from all over Europe repeatedly introduce us to exciting producers who want to offer their products on the German market. This way, genussland always offers something you won't find in any supermarket and hardly in any other shop.
What you'll find here
Our assortment includes fine foods, delicacies, wines, non-alcoholic beverages, and selected kitchen and home accessories — from manufacturers in Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Portugal, Spain, England, Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, Greece, and the USA.
An extra virgin olive oil from Portugal, a genuine Aceto Balsamico from Modena, Fleur de Sel from the Breton coast, hand-mixed spice blends. Fruit spreads, aromatic honey, truffle delicacies, chutneys, and mustard sauces. Vintage sardines and fine canned fish, risotto rice, and handmade pasta — basic ingredients for honest cooking and specialties for special moments.
Our fresh delivery service brings the legendary Beurre Bordier from Brittany, Italian Burrata, and fine salami to your home — securely packaged and continuously chilled.
Wine is particularly close to our hearts: white wine from Rheinhessen and the Pfalz, red wine from Austria and Burgenland, rosé for barbecue season, natural wine for the adventurous, sparkling wine and champagne for special moments. Not from all over the world — but from winemakers we have personally visited and whose work we appreciate. Many of them work organically or biodynamically.
Our Philosophy
What makes a product a genussland product? We ask ourselves this question for every single item we add to our range. The answer is never one-dimensional – it's the combination of craftsmanship, origin, ingredients, and the people behind them.
We ask many questions before a product finds its way into our shop. How is it made? Where do the raw materials come from? What philosophy does the manufacturer pursue? We quickly notice whether we are hearing marketing clichés or if a producer is happy to explain their journey. It is precisely this enthusiasm that we seek – and repeatedly find.
Craftsmanship. We prefer products from small manufactories and family businesses that often produce their culinary treasures by hand for generations. The careful processing and artisanal skill can be tasted in every bite.
Best Ingredients. For us, good quality begins with the raw materials. Whether it's fruit, vegetables, milk, meat, or grain – we ensure that our manufacturers rely on first-class, as natural as possible, ingredients. Many of our producers are organically certified; our shop itself is organically controlled under the number DE-ÖKO-037.
Origin and Regionality. We appreciate products with a clear regional identity. A South Tyrolean mountain apple juice made from slowly ripened, old apple varieties. A Portuguese olive oil from trees that have shaped the landscape for centuries. These stories of origin make delicacies what they are.
Personal relationship with the manufacturer. We have known many of our suppliers personally for years, some for over two decades. We visit them, taste together, and exchange ideas. This proximity guarantees transparency and trust.
At the end of the day, it has to taste good. We try all products ourselves – not just once, but again and again while cooking, at the table, on the plate. Only what convinces us personally finds its way into the shop.
The people behind the products
What brings us the most joy: We get to accompany passionate individuals on their journey. People whose drive it is to make a good product even better. Some have been with us since our founding - for over twenty years.
There's the South Tyrolean fruit farmer who presses mountain apple juice from old, slowly ripened apple varieties, unlike anything else. The Italian balsamic family who ages their vinegar in Modena for decades. The Breton butter manufactory whose hand-churned butter is on the menu of the best restaurants in Europe. The Danish licorice pioneer who reinvented a centuries-old specialty.
Behind every product in our shop stands a person, a family, a story. And it is precisely these stories that make the difference between an interchangeable food item and a true delicacy.
This is where good taste resides
Whether you want to order fine foods online, are looking for a special wine, want to put together a gift for a loved one, or simply want to enrich your kitchen with high-quality ingredients — genussland is the right place for you.
