Decaf Earl Grey tea is a blend of tangy black tea, flavoured with bergamot - a citrus fruit. The perfect afternoon tea: zesty and exhilarating fresh citrus aroma, slightly dry to the nose, with a rounded and balanced orange rind flavour to match the tang of the black tea. Our decaffeinated version of Earl Grey makes a zesty cup of tea, both hot and iced.
Our decaf teas are decaffeinated using the superior carbon dioxide (CO2) process, which is best suited to retain the delicate shape, flavour and antioxidant content of the tea leaves.

It is said that in 1830, an Englishman named Charles Earl Grey traveled on a diplomatic mission to China, where in return for his act of kindness, a local man presented him with the recipe for making this distinctive tea. A few corrections are in order. Firstly, the Chinese have never been black tea drinkers, and were unlikely to have a recipe for Earl Grey to bestow on visitors. Secondly, Charles Earl Grey never set foot in China. Otherwise, the story is completely true.
