Extract from a dwarf citrus fruit used in Earl Grey tea (8)

I believe the answer is:

bergamot

(Other definitions for bergamot that I've seen before include "perfume" , "Oily substance extracted oranges, used in Earl Grey tea" , "essential oil" , "Flavouring in Earl Grey tea" , "Fruit tree" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
