Where it grows

Nuwara Eliya sits at 1,868 metres in Sri Lanka's central highlands. The temperature drops at night. Mist rolls through the hills every morning and does not leave until noon. These conditions slow everything down. The tea plant grows at half the speed it would at lower altitude.

Known as the Champagne region of Ceylon tea, Nuwara Eliya produces some of the lightest, most aromatic black teas in the world.

How to brew

About this tea

Nuwara Eliya FOP1 — High-Grown Ceylon Black Tea

A light and aromatic whole-leaf black tea from Nuwara Eliya, one of Sri Lanka’s renowned high-grown tea regions.
