All the creamy, citrusy pleasure of our Cream Earl Grey, with the caffeine removed. This decaf version has the same great flavor and is excellent both hot and iced.

History & Heritage

Earl Grey is black tea scented with bergamot, a fragrant citrus, and is named after Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl Grey and British Prime Minister in the 1830s. The well-known story of a Chinese mandarin's gift is generally treated as legend. Cream Earl Grey adds smooth vanilla overtones to the classic. This version is decaffeinated using a natural CO2 process, which uses pressurized carbon dioxide to draw caffeine out of the leaves while letting them keep their shape and flavor.

Interesting Facts

• In CO2 decaffeination, the carbon dioxide is recycled and reused after the caffeine is separated out.

• Ingredients: Ceylon black tea, cornflower petals, natural flavors. The tea is an OP grade grown at 4,800 to 7,600 feet.

Tasting Notes & Pairings

Smooth, with vanilla overtones above premium bergamot and a bright, coppery infusion. Perfect for an evening cup with shortbread or a slice of lemon pound cake.

Brewing tips (general guideline): use 1 rounded teaspoon (about 2–3 g) per 8 oz of freshly boiled water (205–212°F), steeped 3–5 minutes. Adjust to taste.
