Details: Would the world still turn without Earl Grey tea? Many would doubt it. Originally just for the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Charles Grey, it was later spread throughout the kingdom and then around the world. It is so popular that we offer over ten versions of it. With this version of Earl Grey, you will not be up all night pondering such deep questions about the Earth spinning.

Dry Leaves: A mixture of dull gray (not grey) leaves.

Liquor: The liquor is a dull brown.

Aroma: The lemony aroma of bergamot from Italy comes through clearly. In this version, the notes are not quite as strong as in the caffeinated version.

Flavors: In the later decades of the British Empire, citrus flavors became synonymous with Earl Grey tea. This tea is true to that heritage. It can be enjoyed on its own or with milk and sugar. Since it is a decaffeinated tea, the flavors are not quite as robust as other Earl Greys.

Caffeine Level: Decaffeinated

Body: Light-bodied. The body is lighter than that of other Earl Greys. When the caffeine is removed, so is some of the body.

Brewing Time: 5 minutes

Brewing Temp: 212º
