The Republic of Tea Decaf Orange Marmalade Black Tea, 36-Count Tea Bags — Citrus Earl Grey Flavor, Low-Bitterness

The Republic of Tea Decaf Orange Marmalade Black Tea is a decaffeinated Earl Grey-style black tea blended with orange peel and bergamot for a citrus-forward, all-day cup.

This loose-inspired tea comes packaged as 36 individually wrapped tea bags, designed to deliver the bright citrus notes of orange and bergamot without the caffeine. It reimagines traditional Earl Grey by adding organic orange peel and natural orange flavor to decaffeinated black tea, making it suitable for afternoon or evening sipping. The blend emphasizes balanced flavor rather than intense tannins, and the included steeping guidance helps you dial in a cup from hot to iced preparations.

What flavor profile can I expect from this decaf blend?

You’ll notice a base of mellow decaffeinated black tea with a pronounced citrus character from orange and bergamot. The combination produces a floral-citrus aroma and a gently sweet finish that complements baked goods or dairy alternatives. It’s less astringent than many straight black teas, aimed at smooth drinkability.

• Mellow decaf black tea base with low bitterness
• Citrusy top notes from orange peel and natural orange flavor
• Bergamot oil granules add classic Earl Grey floral brightness
• Subtle sweetness and pleasant finish suitable for pairing

How should I brew it for the best cup, hot or iced?

For a hot cup, bring fresh filtered water to a rolling boil, pour 6 oz over one tea bag, and steep for 3–5 minutes; adjust time for preferred strength. For iced tea, double the bags per same water volume, steep hot, then pour over ice to chill quickly and lock in flavor. You can also turn this into a Citrus London Fog with a splash of milk or milk alternative.

• Hot brew: 6 oz water, 1 tea bag, 3–5 minutes steep
• Iced brew: use 2 bags per 6 oz equivalent, steep and pour over ice
• Try with milk or plant milk for a creamier profile
• Adjust steep time to reduce bitterness or increase body

What are the ingredients and are there any natural components I should know about?

Ingredients are decaffeinated black tea, natural orange flavor with other natural flavors, organic orange peel, bergamot oil granules, and natural lemon and bergamot flavors. The bergamot is included as oil granules encapsulated on rice hulls to deliver consistent aromatic lift. The orange peel and natural flavors contribute the jammy marmalade character without added sugars.
