earl grey bravo

Earl Grey Bravo is Adagio's classic Earl Grey - a full-leaf Ceylon black tea from Sri Lanka flavoured with bergamot, the fragrant Italian citrus fruit whose essential oil has defined the Earl Grey style since Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, received the blend as a diplomatic gift in the 1830s. This is Earl Grey at its most direct: zesty and exhilarating fresh citrus aroma, slightly dry to the nose, with a rounded and balanced orange rind flavour that matches the natural tang of the Ceylon base. A pleasantly dry finish with a lingering citrus sweetness. The blue cornflowers in the dry leaf add visual character without contributing flavour - they're there because Earl Grey Bravo should look as good in the teapot as it tastes in the cup.
