From a grand old plantation that has developed a name for itself around the globe. This light, copper-colored infusion has an slightly chocolaty taste. Harvested in a prestigious garden in Sri Lanka, this strong and full-bodied black tea is ideal in the morning.

My husband and I spent a week in Paris, and picked up an assortment of teas from Palais des Thes. He fell in love with this tea, and we are so glad that we have found a source to buy these outstanding teas in America! Not just an ordinary black tea.
