The natural bergamot flavor provides a delicate yet noticeable fragrance that lifts the tea experience. This tea offers a classic, aromatic daily ritual.

Earl Grey tea generally contains a moderate amount of caffeine, typically ranging from 40 to 70 milligrams per 8-ounce cup, which is roughly half the caffeine content of a standard cup of coffee.

As a black tea blended with bergamot oil, its caffeine levels are similar to other black teas, providing a gentle energy boost.
