Earl Grey Green

Description

Green tea from China with the robust flavors of bergamot. Makes a light and refreshing drink that's popular both hot and iced. If you are new to green tea, this flavored tea may be a good place to start.

Story

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 mandarin 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.

"This was pretty decent. It is a good combination of earl grey and green tea, ie balanced flavors, but I ended up not liking it too much. There wasn't anything wrong with it, it just wasn't for me. But I still recommend trying it."
