Black tea Earl Grey Ethiquable

Description

This black tea scented with bergamot and orange peel is ideal for the fine palate that seeks freshness in the mouth. Perfect to start your day.

It comes from the Potong garden at the foot of the Himalayas in the southernmost part of Darjeeling.

The altitude, freshness and purity of the Himalayan climate give Earl Grey its uniqueness and character.

This tea is a fine plucking: only the bud, which concentrates the components of the tea - tannins, theine, and aromatic compounds - and the first two leaves are removed.

Black tea, unlike green tea, undergoes a natural fermentation phase. This process causes a change in the chemical composition of the tea leaf. Its tannin content decreases and theine is made more active. This is why black tea is the tea of the morning.
