Black tea Ceylon FOP

Product name:

Black tea Ceylon FOP

Product information:

Elegantly rolled leaves with the classic astringency, freshness, and citrus character found only in Ceylon teas. FOP stands for Flowery Orange Pekoe. “Flowery” refers to the presence of young leaves and buds (tip leaves) in the tea, which gives it a richer aroma. “Orange Pekoe” refers to whole, slender tea leaves of higher quality. Ceylon tea got its name because Sri Lanka was formerly known as Ceylon during the colonial era. The British used this name from the 19th century until 1972, when the country officially changed its name to Sri Lanka. Despite the name change, the term “Ceylon tea” continues to be used in the tea industry as an indicator of quality and a marker of origin. It signifies that the tea is grown in Sri Lanka and possesses a distinct character—a fresh, clean, and aromatic flavour.
