frequently asked questions
-
Single Origin means our green tea is sourced exclusively from one specific estate in the highlands of Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon). Unlike blended teas, this guarantees a unique and consistent flavour profile that reflects the local soil and climate. You get the authentic, unblended taste of Ceylon green tea, celebrated for its fresh, vegetal notes and superior quality.
-
To unlock the delicate flavours of our green tea, use water heated to 80-85°C (just below boiling) and steep one teaspoon of loose leaves for 2-3 minutes. Avoid using boiling water, as it can scorch the leaves and create a bitter taste. Using an infuser allows the leaves to fully unfurl, releasing their complex aroma and smooth flavour.
-
Ceylon Green Tea has a distinct character shaped by Sri Lanka's unique terroir. It often features a bright, golden liquor with a smooth, slightly sweet taste and less astringency compared to some Japanese or Chinese varieties. Our single-origin leaves offer a cleaner, more refined cup with fresh, grassy notes and a light, refreshing finish.
-
Like all high-quality green teas, our Ceylon Green Tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins like EGCG, which help combat oxidative stress. It's a great choice for supporting metabolism, natural energy levels, and overall wellness. As a pure, unblended product, you can be sure you're getting the full nutritional benefits of the camellia sinensis plant.
-
Yes, absolutely. We partner directly with small, single-origin estates in Sri Lanka that uphold fair trade principles. This ensures the workers who cultivate and hand-pluck your tea are treated ethically and paid fairly. Your purchase supports sustainable livelihoods in Sri Lanka's renowned tea-growing regions.
-
Loose leaf tea uses whole or large fragments of tea leaves, which retain their essential oils, complex flavours, and antioxidants. Most tea bags contain broken "fannings" or "dust," which brew quickly but result in a flat, one-dimensional cup. Choosing our loose leaf format provides a superior taste experience and is a more sustainable, plastic-free choice.
