This high-altitude Ceylon black tea is a classic example of Sri Lankan terroir. Its long, wiry, blue-charcoal leaves carry garnet stripes and a bright aroma much like lemon zest chutney. The medium-bodied copper-garnet brew has a floral, lightly spicy aroma with notes of stonefruit and cocoa. It has a hint of lemon pith in the mouth, but is otherwise very smooth, with floral notes, cinnamon spiciness and lemony brightness. The finish is a balance of citrus, stonefruit and spice.
