Description
 
The British were not the first to blend citrus with tea. The Chinese had been doing this centuries before either tea or citrus made it to the Mediterranean. However Earl Grey is characterized by the unique use of bergamont. This tart sour orange relative, provides the perfect taste to match with tea. Good bergamont oil is difficult to find, which is why we relay upon Anteaques tea shop in the UK to source this tea for us, so that this distinctly British tea can be the true representation of Earl Grey.

This Earl Grey is made using Assam and Chinese black teas, as the recipe would have called for in the mid-1800's.

(We are proud to source this tea from Anteaques in Edinburgh, Scotland)
