Rooibos Earl Grey is a classic blend with a twist, using South African rooibos flavoured with bergamot (a citrus fruit). The perfect afternoon tea: zesty fresh citrus aroma, slightly dry to the nose, with a rounded and balanced orange rind flavour. Pleasantly smooth, sweet texture from the rooibos (so, not as dry and brisk as traditional Earl Grey made from black tea). Lingering citrus sweetness. Naturally caffeine-free.
This is a decaf tea | Steep at 100°C for 5 minutes.
Ingredients: rooibos tea, orange, blue cornflowers & natural bergamot flavor

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.
