Ceylon Kandy BOP Tea

Produced in the Kandy region of Sri Lanka, at a medium elevation of 4,000 foot, Ceylon Kandy BOP obtains its unique flavours from the range of altitudes and the plantation's varied exposure to the Monsoon. Bright, strong and full-bodied, with a slightly coppery tone, Ceylon Kandy BOP is perfect when brewed for around five minutes.

The “BOP” refers to a particular grade of tea, “Broken Orange Pekoe”, part of the Orange Pekoe category of tea grade, one of the highest black tea grades available. BOP leaves are indeed broken, allowing for a faster release of flavours and aroma during the brewing process, resulting in a stronger and robust flavour.

The Kandy region is known for its cool climate and rich soil, which are ideal for growing high-quality tea. Tea cultivation in the region dates back to the 19th century and has grown to such a degree that Kandy is now one of the most important tea-growing regions in the country. The region is home to many small-scale tea farmers, who often use traditional methods to produce tea of the highest quality.
