Hero ingredients
-
Bergamot
Originally of Turkish origin, the bergamot is a unique fragrant orange that grows almost exclusively in the region of Calabria in Southern Italy. The oil of the fruit is widely used and is most famous for its use in Earl Grey tea.
-
Tea
Originating from China, tea is now grown across the African and Asian tropics. The leaves of the plant are cured to enable the flavour to be extracted by infusion.
-
Quinine
Quinine is an extract from the bark of the Cinchona tree (“Cinchona officinalis”). The bark we use comes from India and can be traced back to the cinchona plantations established by the British Government in India in the 1860s.
