Rishi Tea is an independently owned, direct trade importer of organic teas and botanicals.

We have partnered with Rishi tea for several reasons. We admire Rishi Tea’s commitment to sustainability and social responsibility in sourcing its tea. Rishi Tea was among the first to earn organic certification under the USDA’s Natural Organic Program in November of 2002. The company’s practice of Direct Trade is not just a romance story or marketing gimmick: it is the very foundation of their quality control program. Rishi Tea staff travel and work hands-on with farmers, allowing the company to verify where, when and how its organic teas are grown and to offer traceability on each lot back to the farm. 

Also, the quality of Rishi tea is fantastic. We hope you will agree.

Description

A special reserve for Earl Grey lovers, Rishi infuses its top grades of Yunnan Dianhong black tea with the essential oil pressed from real bergamot citrus fruits grown in Calabria, Italy to yield their Earl Grey Supreme blend. They select only bergamot oil made during the first pressing of the year, around November-December, which has the most fragrant perfume and floral aromatic complexity.

Tasting Notes

Rich, smooth black tea with the lofty floral and citrusy high notes of Italian bergamot.

Ingredients
