A strong black tea, flavoured with natural oil obtained from the peel of the bergamot citrus.
According to a legend - gifted to a British Prime Minister, the 2nd Earl Grey, in the 1803 from a Chinese nobleman as a gift for saving his son.
This Assam Earl Grey also carries the characteristics of classic Assam teas; big, coppery, noble and full bodied, balancing the Bergamot oil with a tea capable of handling milk while still retaining the elegance of a classy 'golden needled' Assam black tea and has proven to be popular in many of Adelaide's best cafes.
Wonderful and refreshing with or without milk any time of the day.
Great also with chocolate desserts or used for creams and sauces
