Luxuriate in the mesmerizing citrus aroma of this legendary tea. A favorite of Queen Elizabeth Herself. The hallmark of Earl Grey tea is the exotic scent of bergamot, an oil extrac ted from the rind of the Seville orange tree. Our extra-fancy version is a must for every British tea lover. Earl Grey tea is named after Earl Charles Grey II, the prime minister of Britain in the early 1800s. Tradition claims he received the recipe as a gift of gratitude from a mandarin whose life he had saved. We are, in turn, grateful to the Earl for passing the recipe on to the rest of the world. Gold embossed tin contains 3.5 ounces (99 grams). 4, 8 and 16 ounce gold bags also available. Ingredients: Queen selected black tea, orange peels, blue cornflowers, natural bergamot flavor and natural creme flavor. Contains caffeine. Show more
