Details:
This tea was one of the original five teas that made up our Historic Royal Palace tea line. The tin is a lovely blue that is reminiscent of the sapphires found in the Tower of London's Crown Jewels. We blended a special Earl Grey for this occasion. It is stronger in body than the Earl Grey Supreme, a nod to our British cousins' taste for strong teas. The lemony bergamot is also stronger than our other Earl Grey teas.

Dry Leaves:
A mixture of black and brown leaves.

Liquor:
The liquor is a clear brown, tending toward russet.

Aroma:
The lemony aroma of bergamot from Italy comes through clearly.

Flavors:
In the later decades of the British Empire, citrus flavors became synonymous with Earl Grey tea. This tea is true to that heritage.

Caffeine Level:
Caffeinated

Body:
Medium-bodied, lightened by the addition of oolong tea.

Brewing Time:
5 minutes

Brewing Temp:
212º
