French Earl Grey

An invigorating blend for lovers of black tea. This elegant brew is ideal for an afternoon pick-me-up that’s rich in antioxidants.

 Black teas antioxidants are polyphenols which have been found to block DNA damage associated with toxic chemicals. Tannins in black tea also have a therapeutic effect on the gastric lining and improve digestive activity. 

Bergamot is a small citrus tree which blossoms during the winter. It gives the beautiful citrus flavour of our Earl Grey.
