Many stories exist recounting how Earl Grey tea come to bear the name of a former British Prime Minister. Some say he was introduced to the tea on a trip to China, others claim it was at his Northumbria home that a dash of bergamot oil was first added to his tea. Well-balanced and fragrant, Earl Grey has since gone on to charm the world with its sweet citrus flavour.
