A classic Ringtons blend with delicate citrus notes of bergamot. We've chosen a milder Kenyan tea for this blend, rather than a traditional China tea which can sometimes be bitter. We specially seal the tea used in our Earl Grey at the tea estates, to lock in the freshness, then during blending we infuse the tea with natural bergamot oil to deliver a smooth, delicately flavoured tea.  

  Caffeine naturally occurs in all tea leaves as they grow on the tea bushes. We use a carefully controlled decaffeination process which ensures that the caffeine is removed from the dried tea leaves (retaining less than 0.2%), but vitally the natural health benefits remain - as well as the true tea flavour.  

  Unlike some traditional teas, Kenyan teas are produced in ways that make them perfect for teabags - fast infusing and full of flavour. Tea grown east of the Rift Valley is widely considered to be some of the best quality tea in the world, that's why our Kenyan Gold blend is sourced exclusively from this region. We specially seal these teas on the estates to ensure they are as fresh and flavourful as possible, producing a fuller, smoother taste. It's what Ringtons are good at.
