“This is one of those nice nondescript black teas that are just flat good to drink; no one aspect asserts itself, but you look at your cup five minutes later and it’s gone. Just slips right past you...” Read full tasting note
“This a straightforward black with a hint of floral and orange notes. I purposely underleafed this, only because I’ve found floral orange pekoes to be outside my tastes, usually. 1 tsp in 12...” Read full tasting note
“This is just a good cup of black tea. There’s no frills or assertiveness, it’s just something that is comfortable and tasty. No astringency either, which is a pleasant Ceylon surprise. Thanks Kelci :)” Read full tasting note
“I steeped this in my mug at school today; my classmates were telling me “IZZY THAT LOOKS SO SKETCHY OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING.” Calm down you lunatics, it’s just tea. Thanks to Kelci for this tea from...” Read full tasting note

Description

Experience this orthodox Ceylon tea from Nuwara Eliya with a light, fresh, flowery taste. It is a pure orange pekoe, bright with excellent flowery flavor that tends to yield a somewhat light cup. An excellent example of the process of the ‘agony of the leaf’, where the leaf uncurls and expands quite dramatically. Don’t let the tragic story of love lost keep you from embracing this wonderful tea.
