The Staunton Earl Grey tea blend is A blend of Black teas from India & Sri Lanka with Natural Bergamot Oil and Natural Neroli Oil . Bergamot, commonly used in most Earl Grey tea today, is a subspecies of Citrus Aurentium, or ‘Neroli’, the original flower used in China. Sir Joseph Banks, to whome Staunton reported his findings, experimented with various flavourings, and thus the recipe was devised long before Earl Grey heard of it from Sir Banks, his friend. . Today, we use the original blossom, Neroli, together with Bergamot to create our Staunton Earl Grey, the only blend which can truly be said to authentically contain the original Chinese recipe. The Staunton Earl Grey is a tribute to the man who enabled the western world to experience this fine tea. . Who has visited our store and enjoyed sampling the flavours fresh?」9月4日 20時50分
