Description

This tea was in the original five teas that made up our Historic Royal Palace tea line. The tin is a lovely blue that is reminiscent of the sapphires found in the Tower of London’s Crown Jewels. We blended a special Earl Grey for this occasion. It is stronger in body than the Earl Grey Supreme (a nod to our British cousins’ taste for strong teas.) And the lemony bergamot is also stronger than our other Earl Greys.
The medium bodied tea is lightened by the addition of oolong tea.
