Ceylon Tea is a popular type of black tea that is also known as Sri Lankan tea. While Ceylon is known for its bold flavor, it can vary significantly in taste, depending on the type of tea and where it's grown in the country.
In the southern lowlands of Sri Lanka lies the Sabaragamuwa tea region, which is where family-owned, award-winning Sithaka is ideally situated to take advantage of the tropical climate. Here, the strong sunshine and regular rainfall nurture faster growing tea bushes with succulent leaves, producing teas with a truly unique taste. Our tasters have specially selected this long, thin and wiry Orange Pekoe 1 tea, which brews a light-bodied infusion with a delicately sweet, almost honey-like taste.
