Ceylon  Black Tea

🫖 Ceylon Black Tea – The Pride of the Island 

🔸 A Cup of Legacy from the Hills of Sri Lanka

High in the misty mountains of Nuwara Eliya, Uva, and Dimbula, where cool air brushes across sun-kissed tea gardens, grows a world-renowned treasure: Ceylon Black Tea. First introduced by the British in the 19th century, Ceylon tea soon became a global symbol of purity, aroma, and strength.

Every leaf is hand-plucked with care and skill, preserving its essential oils and rich antioxidants. Unlike mass-produced teas, Ceylon Black Tea is full-bodied, brisk, and vibrant, with subtle hints of citrus, malt, or floral undertones, depending on the region.

It’s not just a drink — it’s a Sri Lankan tradition, steeped in heritage, savored around the world.

🫙 Storage Instructions

To protect its flavor and freshness:

• 🔒 Store in an airtight container (tin or glass is best)
  
  

• 🌬️ Keep in a cool, dry, and dark place
  
  

• ☀️ Avoid sunlight, heat, and humidity
  
  

• ❌ Never store near spices, coffee, or moisture
  
  

• ✅ If possible, use within 6–12 months for best flavor
  
  

💡 Don’t store in the refrigerator — tea absorbs odors and moisture easily.
