How It's Made & Wellness Benefits
How This Tea is Crafted
Ceylon Black Tea is made using traditional methods where freshly hand-picked 'two leaves and a bud' are gently withered, rolled, naturally oxidized to develop rich colors, and dried. From cool high-mountain peaks (like Nuwara Eliya) to sunny coastal lowlands (like Ruhuna), Ceylon Black Tea offers a wonderful range from light, floral teas to deep, sweet, full-bodied cups.
