Whittard Earl Grey Alice in Wonderland Mini Caddy, 40g

We love English eccentricity – so we’ve created three mini storage caddies for our most quintessentially English teas, decorated with the original illustrations from Alice in Wonderland. With its unusual bergamot flavouring, Earl Grey is a quirky classic fit for the Mad Hatter himself…

Renowned for its wonderful bergamot aroma, Earl Grey tea has become firmly ensconced as an afternoon tea classic. The story goes that the iconic blend was specially created for Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, in reward for saving the son of a Chinese mandarin from drowning. When his supplies of the tea had run out, the earl commissioned British tea blenders to recreate the taste. A few decades later, Walter Whittard devised his own signature version which took the tea auctions by storm. Have a taste, and find out what all the fuss was about.
