Earl Grey decaffeinated

Earl Grey Decaffeinated Tea is a blend of decaffeinated black tea, primarily using Ceylon black tea, and flavored with natural bergamot oil. Here are the key aspects: - Tea Base: The tea is made from high-grown Ceylon black tea, known for its distinct flavor profile which can range from sweet and floral to rich and malty, depending on the terroir and processing style. - Decaffeination: The tea is decaffeinated, typically using a process like the Swiss water method to maintain the quality and flavor of the tea. - Flavoring: The tea is scented with bergamot oil, which is extracted from the rind of bergamot oranges. This adds a citrusy and aromatic flavor to the tea. - Flavor Profile: The combination of the decaffeinated black tea and bergamot oil results in a balanced and full-flavored cup. The aroma is distinctively natural, with a citrusy taste that is bittersweet and smooth with a sweet/dry finish.

Earl Grey decaffeinated

Black Tea Ceylon decaffeinated, natural flavouring.
While Earl Grey tea itself is not an herbal tea, it does offer several benefits due to its components: - Black Tea: Black tea is rich in antioxidants, which can help protect against heart disease, certain cancers, and other diseases. It also contains caffeine (though decaffeinated in this case), which can enhance alertness and improve cognitive function. However, decaffeination removes most of the caffeine, making it suitable for those sensitive to caffeine. - Bergamot Oil: Bergamot oil has several health benefits. It is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce anxiety and stress. The oil also has antimicrobial properties, which can aid in digestion and skin health. Additionally, bergamot oil can help lower cholesterol levels and improve blood sugar control.
Black tea has a rich history dating back to the 17th century when it was first introduced to Europe from China. It became a staple in British culture, particularly with the establishment of the East India Company. Ceylon black tea, in particular, has been a significant export from Sri Lanka since the 19th century; Bergamot oranges are primarily grown in Calabria, Southern Italy, and have been used for centuries in culinary and medicinal practices. The use of bergamot oil in tea is attributed to the Earl of Grey, Charles Grey, who allegedly received a special blend of tea flavored with bergamot oil as a gift. This blend became known as Earl Grey tea and has since become a popular tea variant worldwide; Earl Grey tea is quintessentially British and has a long history tied to British aristocracy. The tea was named after Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl Grey, who was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in the 1830s. The story goes that he received a special blend of tea flavored with bergamot oil to offset the lime content in the water at his estate, Howick Hall. This unique flavor combination became popular among the British aristocracy and eventually spread globally.
