Ceylon Premium Black Loose Leaf Tea Broken Orange Pekoe 1 BOP1 (Ceylon BOP1, 175g)

ORIGIN: Our Ceylon BOP loose leaf tea comes from the island of Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), in the Indian Ocean. The island's unique climate and altitude (2000 – 6000 feet above sea level) contribute to the tea's distinctive qualities - it has a medium to full body with a refreshing character. ABOUT: Broken Orange Pekoe (BOP) teas consist of smaller, broken tea leaves compared to whole leaf grades like OP (Orange Pekoe). Ceylon BOP tea offers a bright and brisk flavour with a balanced astringency. BENEFITS: Ceylon tea contains antioxidants. It is also known to contain higher levels of potassium than other black teas – one cup can have up to 25mg of potassium (this tea has not been tested for potassium content). Its moderate-to-high caffeine levels may provide an energy boost. USES: This tea is versatile and can be enjoyed on its own or with milk and sugar, making it suitable for both traditional Western-style tea preparation and Eastern-style tea consumption. BREWING: Allow 1- 1½ teaspoon per cup. Pour the freshly boiled water onto the leaves. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes. The brewing time and water temperature can be adjusted based on personal preferences.
