A full-bodied premium Ceylon black tea with an inviting aroma and a light, fruity taste.
English Breakfast ( Ceylon Tea )
English Breakfast is a premium Ceylon black tea OP1, a high-quality loose leaf tea sourced from the lush tea gardens of Sri Lanka, previously known as Ceylon. The designation "OP1" stands for "Orange Pekoe 1," which indicates the tea's grade and leaf size. The tea boasts a distinctive flavor profile characterized by a rich, full-bodied taste with subtle hints of malt and a bright, brisk finish. It features a complex and aromatic cup, which is both refreshing and invigorating. The tea leaves are carefully selected to provide a smooth, well-rounded experience with a slight hint of natural sweetness. The leaves are long, wiry, and unbroken, indicative of high-quality processing. These whole leaves unfurl beautifully during brewing, resulting in a deep, amber-colored infusion. To brew English Breakfast, it’s recommended to use freshly boiled water and steep the leaves for 3-5 minutes, depending on your strength preference. This tea also works exceptionally well as a cold brew, exuding delightful flavors and aromas when steeped in cold water for several hours. This tea is highly versatile, enjoyed both plain and with additions like milk, sugar, or honey. It's excellent as a morning cup to kickstart the day or as an afternoon pick-me-up.

The Loves and Losses of Lady Sita
Today chais are well-loved even by coffee drinkers, and most of the recipes mirror the ancient South Asian tradition of boiling milk and water with tea, spices, and sometimes sweeteners. Our Sita Chai can be made the same way, if you like, though it is good on it’s own as well. Either way, it is best drunk with a story, so sit back, relax, and rest your mind in the tales of Ancient India.
