Bergamot

Citrus bergamia

Bergamot is a citrus fruit native to southern Italy, and it has been part of the Mediterranean diet since the early 18th century. Research has verified Bergamot's capacity for restoring emotional balance, and in the process, enhancing the efficacy of treatments for depression and anxiety disorders. It is soothing and grounding to those who are anxious or overly stimulated, yet uplifting and stabilizing to individuals suffering from depression.*


Bergamot is also used frequently to impart a fresh, delightful citrus flavor in food. It produces a marvelous synergy when used sparingly in green tea, and is most famously known for the distinctive flavor it brings to Earl Grey Tea.*
