I brought home a box of Ahmad's Earl Grey, but don't wanna try it yet. After all, I think I'm not a tea person.

I like to start the day with caffeine and in the evening have alcohol. Thus causing and curing insomnia.

Red rooibos, chicory root, natural flavors, rosehips, cinnamon, lemongrass, peppermint, papaya, chamomile, panax ginseng leaves, anise seed, dandelion root, ginger root, orange oil and orange peel. Contains no sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. A natural source of antioxidants.

I always wonder what natural flavour means.

A cup of Fortnum & Mason's cooked Pu-Erh aged.

Someone once told me that natural flavoring means sugar but I have no proof of that.

it can't, not in the States at least. especially when the product is advertised as "sugar free" which it happens to be

According to the US Code of Federal Regulations, a natural flavor or flavoring is:
"...the essential oil, oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof, whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional."

Yepp, this repugnant vanilla aroma is actually a byproduct of papermaking and stems from wood.
