Overview
Pairing: breakfast pastries, aged cheese, or dark chocolate
Oil of bergamot and fine black tea give Earl Grey tea its distinctive flavor. Charles Grey, a British Earl and Prime Minister in the 1800s, was the first to popularize this blend. He served his signature tea at diplomatic events, and the upper crust of Britain instantly fell in love with the fragrant, citrus flavor. Now you can enjoy a taste of this history and keep your pinky raised.
