Dilmah Single Estate Tea, Lover's Leap Estate, Pekoe 1, 20-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 2)
High Grown 5700 feet above sea level. High above the town of Nuwara Eliya, Lover’s Leap is named after the tragic legend of two young lovers who leapt from the top of a picturesque waterfall on the estate. This is an area of outstanding beauty, where the crisp mountain area carries the fragrance of abundant cypress groves, eucalyptus and wild mint. Tasting Notes Light brown-yellow with green nuances. Bright, breezy, effortlessly light and snappy yet with tannins of fortitude. Long lasting in aftertaste. Like Champagne made from cool climate grapes picked just before they get too ripe. An exquisite and alluring tea. ABOUT THE BRAND Some years ago, Americans drank mainly Ceylon Tea, the worlds finest.
