Earl Grey is one of the world's most beloved tea blends, named after Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey and British Prime Minister in the 1830s. We blend premium black tea with natural bergamot oil (from the bergamot orange) to create the distinctive citrus aroma and flavor that makes Earl Grey instantly recognizable. This classic blend has been enjoyed for nearly 200 years—and for good reason. Blended fresh for optimal flavor.
