Earl Grey Tea

Earl Grey Tea Earl Grey Tea . This old favourite English Tea has quite a history. Named after Charles Grey British Prime Minister during the reign of King William IV in the 1830's.
One story goes that a friend of the prime minister was a chinese mandarin whose son was rescued by Lord Grey's men from drowning and gave him the recipe in gratitude. Lord Grey had never been to China ! So maybe another version fits : Lord Grey's footman rescued the son of a Maharaja from the jaws of a tiger !
Anyway Lord Grey took to drinking this tea and it became the PM's favourite, the secret blend was replicated and today we still enjoy Earl Grey Tea.

Buy Earl Grey Tea

Buy  Earl Grey Tea Earl Grey Tea is a blend of black teas. It is very important to achieve the correct balance of teas. Our blend combines teas from India , China and Ceylon. The exact recipe is a guarded secret ! Scented with natural oil of bergamot giving the tea its distinct citrus taste and aroma. Some teas take and hold the oil of bergamot much better than others and getting the balance right is the art.

We are very pleased that our Earl Grey Tea has just won a GOLD award at the 2007 Great Taste Awards !
