Savor the rich, full-bodied flavor of Kandy Ceylon Black Tea, hand-picked from Sri Lanka’s misty highlands. This premium single-origin loose leaf tea offers bright copper notes, aromatic depth, and a naturally sweet finish—ideal for tea connoisseurs seeking authentic Ceylon flavor.
Why Ceylon Black Tea
Kandy’s high elevation and cool climate produce some of Ceylon’s most prized black teas. Volcanic soil and morning mists create naturally complex, full-bodied leaves with distinctive brightness that distinguishes them from other black teas worldwide.
Loose Leaf Advantage
Loose leaf tea allows the leaves to fully expand during brewing, releasing richer flavors and aromatics compared to bagged alternatives. You control steeping time and strength, ensuring a consistently excellent cup every time.
Flavor Profile
A bold, malty foundation is accented by bright copper undertones and subtle stone fruit notes. The finish is clean and lingering, with a naturally sweet aftertaste. Brews to a rich amber-gold liquor with inviting aroma.
