Full Bodied & Smooth with the Enlivening Floral Character of Real Bergamot Citrus Fair Trade Certified USDA Organic Non-GMO Certified Organic by QAI, inc. Certified Kosher   Caffeine Level: High Flavor Story This classic black tea is the namesake of Charles Grey, Britain's Prime Minister during the 1830's. After saving the life of a Chinese nobleman, the Earl Grey received a gift of citrus blossom-scented tea traditionally known as Tai Tai Cha. Tea salons throughout Europe replicated this blend by "perfuming" black teas with the aromatic oil of Italian bergamot oranges. Thus, a timeless tea was born. Taste True Tea We are driven by a mission to connect tea drinkers to the origins of our teas. For us, that is the essence of being a direct trade importer. Rishi's tea buyers travel the world every year, collaborating with artisan tea farmers during the peak growing seasons. This allows us to source organic teas and botanicals of an epicurean caliber, infusing everything we create with a signature quality and story. In that adventurous spirit, we invite you to Taste True Tea. Fuller Flavor, Deeper Aroma, Richer Body Introducing Our Novel Knit Tea Bag Unlike common paper tea bags-which strip away the flavor and aroma of tea-the Rishi tea bag features a novel knit material designed to provide a truer infusion of our organic teas and herbal ingredients.
