CEYLON ESTATE black tea

Overlooking a tropical rainforest on the island of Sri Lanka (which is referred to by its colonial name “Ceylon” in tea circles), the New Vithanakande tea factory has earned an “A” rating by the Ethical Tea Partnership of the UK for its collaboration with small tea holders and village farmers in the lowlands.

Using an extremely fine sorting process to seek out the highest quality leaf, this “extra special” grade boasts a beautiful appearance with abundant golden tips. This bright, copper-colored cup has a full-bodied mouthfeel, a lively, caramelized-honey fragrance and deep, malty and complex notes of dry dark chocolate, chestnuts, wood, spice and a hint of ripe fruit.

  • Black tea

This tea is made from 100% natural ingredients. Sri Lanka.

Tin Size: Our elegant, embossed tin is designed to keep tea fresh and full of flavor. Each tin holds approximately 48 teaspoons (16 tablespoons) of loose tea. The number of servings-per-tin varies depending upon the type of tea, leaf size, cup size and desired strength (amount of tea used). The tin itself measures 6.25 inches tall, 2.75 inches wide and 2 inches deep. Although the tin holds 16 fluid ounces by volume, the actual ounce weight of the tea within varies depending on the density of each specific type of tea.

Sample Size: Samples are packaged in re-sealable foil bags that contain approximately 6 teaspoons (2 tablespoons) of loose-leaf tea. One sample brews between 2-6 cups depending on desired strength.

The bag itself measures approximately 3 inches wide, 5 inches tall and 0.5 inches deep.
