We all know the story of the Earl Grey of Howick Hall. He was Prime Minister of England in the 1830’s. From a Chinese Mandarin he was given tea scented with bergamot oil as a present. He was so delighted with this tea, that he drank only this variety from then on, and thus made Earl Grey the most popular flavored tea in the world. Our Earl Grey is based traditionally on a China blend, and is a must to every standard tea assortment. Ingredients: black tea, natural flavoring
