Earl Grey - Organic Loose Leaf Black Tea

Region - Organic Black Tea from Nilgiri, India, Italy Tasting Notes - Citrusy, Rich There are several unverified stories about how this popular tea came to be. Our favorite tale involves "Charles Grey, The Second Earl Grey" and his Chinese mandarin friend. Charged with the task of offsetting the taste of lime in the local well water, Mr. Grey's friend added the citrusy flavor of the bergamot fruit to black tea leaves and changed the world of tea forever. ***3 grams for every 6-8 oz of water (2 tsp per mug)***209 F (boil water, let cool for 1 min)***Let steep for 4-5 min***Charles***We tried a lot of Earl Greys before deciding on this one. The tea was grown and blended in India and the Bergamot oil came from Italy. Any lover of Earl Grey would feel at home drinking this tea.***Nick***Seriously... The London Fog is how I got my girl friend to like me. I used to make her one every time she came into my café.***-->
