Cream Earl Grey, Organic
Organic black tea from Sri Lanka gives this Cream Earl Grey its full-bodied base. The listed oil of bergamot supplies a distinct citrus note, while organic cornflowers and natural flavors round out the loose blend.
Our original tasting notes describe a mellow cream character and a hint of vanilla on the finish. Brew it as a black tea and enjoy it plain or with milk; check the current ingredient label for the flavoring details that matter to you.
