Flavored teas or perfumed teas are the result of tea leaves being enhanced by the addition of oils, scents and flavorings, dried flowers or dried fruits. Since the dawn of time, the Chinese, fathers of humanist civilization, poets of the joy of living, learnt and then taught us to find sources of joy on nature. Tea, wondrous messenger of their ancestral customs, lends itself to blends with subtle flavors without either tea or flavoring losing out. The best example is the bergamont flavored tea baptised “Earl Grey” made from a receipe that was given to the Second Earl of Grey in the 1830’s by a Chinese mandarin whose life had been saved by a British Diplomat.
