Pure Ceylon Black tea, Broken Orange Pekoe One (OP1)
Plain Black teasLoose leaf · From Kandy region · Silver medal winner
Note: 2020 Silver medal winner for Ceylon Black tea at the Australian Tea Masters Gold Leaf Awards
Grown in an artisanal style, this special black tea is grown in a medium region that is of special note. Sri Lanka’s Kandy region, from which this tea hails, is where Ceylon tea was first founded. In 1867 a Scotsman named James Taylor started Sri Lanka’s first tea plantation estate. With a short brewing time, you’ll be able to enjoy this rich light copper coloured liquid in a matter of moments. Sweet overtones blend with the slight touch of bitters in this unique tea making it taste like an Earl Grey. Featuring both an aroma and flavour of a strawberry vanilla mix you’ll enjoy this tea best in the morning or afternoon.
High caffeine, 45-55mg per cup (6 oz)
