Premium Ceylon Leaves from Storied Slopes
Ingredients: 100% Ceylon black tea from the Kenilworth estate in Sri Lanka's Dimbulla region.
This single-origin tea consists of carefully selected, large whole leaves classified as Orange Pekoe (OP). The high-altitude growing conditions and skilled processing result in tea leaves that unfurl gracefully during brewing, releasing their full flavor potential.
