Dammann Earl Grey, 50 sachets

Dammann Freres uses only the highest quality whole leaf tea and encloses it in a silky 'cristal' sachet that promotes full extraction of flavor while helping to prevent bits of leaf from getting into your cup.

The Earl Grey blend is named after the 2nd Earl Grey, who reputedly received a gift, of tea flavoured with bergamot oil from a Chinese bureaucrat.

This Earl Grey is made using unsmoked Chinese teas harvested in the Southern provinces. Its enchanting aroma comes from the Calabrian Bergamot oil used to create a classic Earl Grey. We find that this tea is best enjoyed in the late afternoon or early evening. Recommended steeping time is 4 - 5 minutes.
