Beschreibung
Earl Grey is a tea blend that originally consisted exclusively of Chinese teas and was lightly flavoured with the fine, fragrantly bitter oil of bergamot.
The tea was named after Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey (1764-1845). In 1833, as British Prime Minister, he abolished the East India Company's price monopoly in the tea trade with China. However, tea was not actually invented by Earl Grey. Legend has it that during a storm on the crossing, the cargo was badly shaken up and bergamot oil poured onto the tea bales. When the ship arrived in London, Lord Grey was shown the damage and decided to first taste the tea and then decide whether the cargo should be destroyed. However, the tea was so well received by friends and acquaintances that the Earl decided to put the "flavoured" tea on the market.
Today, an Earl Grey is not only blended from Chinese teas, but also from Indian varieties and goes perfectly with slightly salty dishes and small snacks.
Until now, these exceptional quality raw materials were only available as loose tea; it is only Sirocco's handmade tea bags that make it possible to process these premium teas as individually packaged tea portions.
The handmade bags made of biodegradable material are packed on the basis of natural corn starch (no nylon). Without the use of glue or staples, each bag is individually hand-sewn with unbleached, natural cotton thread - truly a small work of art.

Over 100 years ago, Alfons Kuster founded his coffee roasting company on the upper side of Lake Zurich. Even then with a great love of detail. Just like today. Sirocco still finds the best producers for you. People who care for their products with heart and soul. People who make no compromises when it comes to the quality of their precious raw products. Of course, much has changed since then, but the company makes a point of ensuring that the spirit of this venerable tradition lives on with modern and sustainable cultivation and processing methods. Because that's where coffee differs from coffee and tea from tea. That is precisely where our palate feels the difference. And enjoys the memory of tradition with every drop.Story
