A BOP grade that brings out a good balance of taste and strength. Grown in the Uva District known for a distinctive floral flavor.

From May to September the southwest monsoon blows giving the southwest part of Sri Lanka its heaviest rainfall. The central mountains rising up to 9000 feet cause a rain shadow to the eastern side of these hills, a district known as Uva. These cool dry winds blow across these eastern lands creating very dry conditions in Uva. These conditions in conjunction with the mountain soils bring about a chemical change in the tea shoots creating a distinctive Uva taste profile. The unmistakable taste is highly sought after during this special time of year for Uva teas.

The estate is 744 acres and supports 750 resident workers, 10 staff members, and 2 executives.

Rank 5 Best Iced! Submitted: 02/06/2011
This is the best Ceylon tea to ice. The tea takes on citrus flavors really well. I like to put slices of limes and oranges in the tea while it brews. Other fruit like cherries and pineapple work really well too. This is the only tea I use for ice tea, since I can add so many different flavors to it.
