description

The famous recipe that legend says was created for the Earl of Gray in the early XIX century, has become a classic because people all over the world are seduced by the marriage of black tea and bergamot from Calabria. We have recreated this recipe using a more fragrant Ceylon black tea, true bergamot essential oil, and enriched the melange with colorful cornflower and calendula petals. The result is simply the ideal everyday tea.
