Pure Ceylon Green tea

Green & White teas

Loose leaf · From Uva region · Good for Iced tea

This tea comes from Sri Lanka’s famous town of Nanu Oya in the Uva region. History of the region dates back to the time of the popular Indian epic Ramayana. As the legend goes the Sri Lankan king, Ravana, kidnapped the princess, Sita, and hid her in caves in the surrounding area. Later, in 1896, the first tea seeds were planted in the Nanu Oya District. Since then, the superiority of teas grown on this single estate has set them far above the rest — literally. At an elevation of between 1,402-1,950m, this high grown tea has spent its life on top of the world. Our Mythical Green tea appears yellow in colour and boasts a mild, roasted flavour that will earn it a permanent place in your cup.
