Organic Earl Grey Tea – A Timeless Classic
Earl Grey is one of the most beloved and recognizable teas, featuring a traditional black tea base complemented by the refreshing, citrusy essence of orange bergamot. This unique combination creates a perfectly balanced flavor profile, with floral, sweet, malty, and citrus notes that dance on the palate.
The origins of Earl Grey are shrouded in mystery, with various stories floating around. However, the most widely accepted tale is that bergamot was added to the tea served at the home of Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl of Grey, to mask the taste of the limestone in the water on his estate. Lady Grey later introduced the tea at London gatherings, and soon it became a favorite among the aristocracy, earning a reputation for sophistication and refinement.
Today, Earl Grey is enjoyed by tea drinkers everywhere, far beyond the realms of high society.
