Ceylon Ahinsa OP organic
Organically grown tea that comes from Ihala Millawa in the Galle district of Sri Lanka. You will be surprised by this wonderful tea. We started by brewing it as usual, 4-5 minutes steeping time, and it tasted like almost nothing. But then we experimented with it and found that after 7-8 minutes of steeping time, the tea completely changed character and after 10 minutes of steeping time, we got the best cup of Ceylon tea we have yet tasted.
