Earl Grey and flavoured black teas blended in Sri Lanka on a Ceylon black tea base. Earl Grey is black tea flavoured with bergamot, and Ceylon tea is a common base because its bright, brisk character carries the citrus well.

Flavours

• Earl Grey, classic or with added flowers such as cornflower
• Fruit flavours, such as mango, peach, passion fruit or lemon
• Spice blends, such as cinnamon, cardamom or ginger
• Your own recipe

Flavouring

Teas can be flavoured with natural flavourings, natural-identical flavourings or essential oils, depending on your market and label. Tell us what your label needs to say and we confirm the flavouring with the supplier and send the flavour specification with the sample.
