A fine black tea blended with natural oil of bergamot. The Chinese ancient, ever in pursuit of perfect harmony of mind, body and spirit, drank their teas blended with the oils and blossoms of various fruits and flowers. Tradition has it that the secret recipe for this tea blended with natural oil of bergamot was given to one of earl grey"s diplomats in the 1880s by Chinese Mandarin as a reward for saving his life. Our earl grey is pale and clear in colour and has an aromatic flavour which can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Blended and packed in England.
