Ceylon Breakfast – Ceylon Black Tea Blend
Ceylon Breakfast – Ceylon Black Tea Blend
Origin Tea
Our morning tea, designed for a generous, no-nonsense cup. A house blend of two Ceylon grades, BOP for body and FBOP for aroma, in the proportions that make the most balanced cup.
Composition
Black tea, blend of BOP Uva (60%) and FBOP (40%), Sri Lanka (Ceylon), direct sourcing. No additions of any kind.
Tasting Notes
Deep amber liquor. A bold attack carried by the BOP, rounded out by the FBOP, which adds a little floral depth. Full body, round malt, without excess astringency. The morning cup that doesn't need to be complicated.
Why This Blend
BOP alone can be too direct for an everyday cup, FBOP alone a little too light to wake you up. By blending the two grades in these proportions, we get a tested compromise that we kept: enough body to hold up with milk, enough roundness to drink plain.
Tips
Steep 2.5 g per 200 ml at 95-100°C for 3 to 4 minutes. Excellent plain or with a splash of milk.
