African Grey is composed of organic South African rooibos scented with oil of bergamot, a citrus fruit grown in Italy along the Mediterranean—which gives Earl Grey its sweet, citrusy flavor—along with a small amount of herby hyssop and sweet bee pollen. Our goal with this blend is to provide a caffeine-free version of a timeless classic.
