About Lavender Earl Grey - Naturally Flavored Black Tea
Earl Grey is considered a standard, one of the most common (yet exciting) teas in the Western world. Many equate Earl Grey with black tea, in general, but actually it is a blend of black teas flavored with the essential oil of Bergamot, a pear shaped Mediterranean citrus fruit. It was first introduced to England by Earl Charles Grey in the mid 1800's. As of late, it has been fashionable to add lavender blossoms to Earl Grey, and the flavors marry quite nicely. We use a Washington State, organically grown, culinary grade lavender in all of our lavender blends. We chose this variety for its exuisitly smooth flavor and aroma as well as the vibrant purple buds it produces.
A Few Words On Taste
