Earl Grey Tea
Is it true that this is the Charles Grey that Earl Grey Tea is named after?
The Earl Grey blend is named after the 2nd Earl Grey, British Prime Minister in the 1830s and author of the Reform Bill of 1832, who reputedly received a gift, probably a diplomatic perquisite, of tea flavoured with bergamot oil taken from bergamot, a citrus fruit typical of Southeast Asia and grown commercially in Italy.

Marion Cotillard, Keira Knightley and Rie Rasmussen are the most beautiful women on Earth.
Thank you, roger 395, I've been drinking that tea for ages and never knew that. What about Twinings' Lady Grey tea?
