Sri Lanka

Several gardens in Sri Lanka give their finest batches, and the house blender turns them into a single tea. Ceylan O.P. Tea N°7 is a masterful Ceylon from Dammann Frères, one of France’s oldest tea houses, founded in 1692, of O.P. grade (Orange Pekoe). Woody and gently spicy, it offers a soft, round cup of a beautiful amber color, an everyday classic, pleasant from morning to evening. Available in a 100g canister or in 24 individually enveloped tea bags; pour it plain or with a splash of milk, with scones or a lemon cake.
