| Decaf Earl Grey tea is a decaffeinated black tea blend, which gets its flavor from bergamot oil. This popular tea blend is named after Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, who reputedly received a gift, probably a diplomatic perquisite, of tea that was flavored with bergamot oil. Bergamot is a fragrant citrus plant, used for the oil in its rind rather than for the flesh of the fruit. The legend usually involves a grateful Chinese mandarin, but this blend of tea was first made from fermented black Indian and "Ceylon" (Sri Lankan) teas, though over the years many other varieties have been used. |
