125g of Organic Fairtrade Earl Grey Tea, with aromatic bergamot, presented in a presentational Gift Caddy.
Earl Grey is named after the second Earl of Grey. Hampstead have recreated the original formula using an exclusive blend of biodynamic teas and the natural oil of bergamot, a citrus fruit. The result is an Earl Grey admirably suited to modern tastes: aromatic, smooth and sophisticated but never overpowering.
The tea is grown at Makaibari, the first biodynamic tea estate in the world, situated 3 - 4000 ft high up in the Himalayas. The estate is protected on all sides by lush virgin rainforests and is the home and livelihood to a community of 1700 people, a family of panthers and richly diverse wildlife.
In keeping with the Hampstead philosophy, their teas are free from all artificial additives and gmos. The tea bags are non-chlorine bleached and are staple free.
Enjoy: Allow one level teaspoon of tea per person. Pour on freshly boiled water and infuse for up to 3 minutes. Add milk and sugar to taste if desired. Or, add a slice of lemon and try iced.
The Demeter Logo: All Hampstead teas are certified Demeter, which is the highest standard for sustainable agriculture. It is often called “organic plus” as this method includes proactive farming techniques such as herbal soil preparations, rigorous composting systems, and alignment with a planetary calendar.
