Premium black teaOrigin:
Sri LankaA long-time favorite, this delicious broken orange pekoe BOP grade black tea from the Pettiagalla Tea Estate in Sri Lanka is perfect for all-day sipping. We sell a lot of it to tearooms across America. It makes a good base for blending as well. (Ceylon is the former name for Sri Lanka.)

This is my favorite tea. Love the flavor!!
this is such a beautiful cup or pot of tea. it is just that strong enough, but no bitterness. excellent tea. I certainly never want to run out of this tea!
I didn't realize how delicious this tea is until I tried another brand. Given that you steep it adequately it has a rich carmel flavor that is very delicious. Its one of my favorite teas and everyone that has sampled it likes it equally well. I steep it at 209 degrees for about 6 mins or until the color is a deep redish brown anything less does not bring out the fullness of the carmel notes.
Great taste after sterling in just below boiling water for 3 mins. A few stems, but that's tolerable. Ceylon/Sri Lanka has historically produced great teas, and I'm not disappointed in this estates product. Altitude harvest and season(flush) info would be well received.
Just got back from a trip from Sri Lanka and picked this up to have at work to remind me of the trip. Love it! Great mouth feel, color, and taste.
