type: black

origin: china india

variety: earl grey

caffeine: medium

price level: $$$$

This blend is perhaps the most famous tea in the world, it was inspired by the British Prime Minister, Earl Grey. There are as many different versions of this as there are tea companies. Our blend uses teas from India and China, blended with natural Oil of Bergamot. Dry Leaves: A mixture of black and brown leaves (from the Formosa Oolong). Liquor: The liquor is a clear brown, tending toward russet. Aroma: The lemony aroma of bergamot from Italy comes through clearly. This version the notes are not quite as strong as in the Supreme or Imperial version. Caffeine Level: Caffeinated Body: The medium bodied tea is lightened by the addition of oolong tea. Flavors: In the later decades of the British Empire, citrus flavors became synonymous with Earl Grey Tea. This tea is true to that heritage. It can be enjoyed on its own or with milk and sugar. Brewing Time: 4 to 5 minutes Brewing Temperature: 212° F

      Earl Grey fans will love this one. Strong bergamot flavor, excellent with a bit of milk and sugar.

      A solid earl grey, nothing fancy. It tends to steep a little bitter, especially on the first steeping
