Organic Pure Ceylon Black OP Premium Big Leaves Tea-Kanday Tea 454g/1LB

Ceylon Tea, prized since the late 1800s for its exceptional taste, aroma, and texture, is among the finest but can be costly. Sri Lanka's diverse climates yield distinct teas from regions such as Dimbula, Uva, Nuwara Eliya, and Ruhuna.

Recommendation: Plain Tea

Physical appearance: leafy 

Agro-climatic districts: Kandy

In the Kandy district, where Sri Lanka’s tea industry was first established in 1867, the teas are classified as “mid-grown,” since cultivation occurs below 1,300 meters. Their flavor varies with altitude and the degree of shelter from the monsoon winds, yet all are noted for their pronounced taste. Kandy teas yield a bright, copper-hued infusion that is robust, rich, and intensely full-bodied.
