Duke of Decaf Earl Grey Tea Blend

Earl Grey tea is one of the most popular teas in the West. This decaf black tea with hints of citrus is a perfect introduction to tea. It is great served hot or cold, and pairs well with food. Earl Grey is a black tea, so it usually has a bold flavor with a citrusy taste due to the addition of natural bergamot oil. Earl Grey taste is often described as bright, refreshing, and bold. Add a spoon of honey and a splash of cream to enjoy a more classic 'British style' cup.

To make the perfect cup of Duke of Decaf tea, you will want to use 1 teaspoon of tea leaves for each 8-ounce cup. For an optimal flavor experience, bring the water to about 200°F. This is important, as black tea will become quite bitter if it is steeped in water that is too hot. If you do not have an electric tea kettle with a temperature setting, bring your kettle to a full boil, then remove it from the heat and let the water sit for a moment before steeping the tea. Some people enjoy Duke of Decaf tea with a short 1-minute steep, while others prefer the stronger flavors of a 3-minute steep. We recommend capping the steep time at 3 minutes to avoid a bitter taste.

Each glass jar contains roughly 2 oz of loose-leaf tea, depending on density of the tea it may be slightly less or slightly more. Each jar contains enough tea to make 10 strong cups or 15 standard cups of tea. Caffeine Free!
