Ritual n° 33 – Nuwara Eliya OP

His soul

Its shoots contain the essence and breath of the high altitude, misty heights of Sri Lanka, where the air is clear and the tea gardens seem suspended in time.
Its citrusy aroma is just the beginning of an elegant and smooth taste, where sweetness and a fruity hint blend in a harmonious sip.
A refined tea, of discreet beauty, that takes us back to golden sunsets among the plantations and the grace of slow gestures.

Its nature

Low-oxidation black tea harvested above 1,800 meters, where the cool, foggy climate gives it a unique aromatic balance between body and lightness.
Its OP grade indicates that the leaves are whole and carefully and delicately processed to preserve their typical qualities. It is best enjoyed pure.

His strength

Rich in antioxidants and theine, it is appreciated by many to accompany moments of concentration and vitality.
Often chosen to start the day with clarity, or to accompany breaks in which the body and mind seek new energy.
