Ahmad Ceylon Loose Leaf Tea in Tin 7oz/200g

Our Ceylon is a fine example of one of the world’s most popular teas. Perfectly balanced with a brisk and lively flavor, it makes a refreshing and energizing cuppa any time of the day.

Famed for its diverse growing areas, Sri Lanka’s climate is well suited to producing quality black teas. Our expert Tea Masters blend teas from different gardens to create this balanced loose leaf expression. We use ‘low-grown’ teas – harvested from sunny gardens below 600 metres (m) – to give the brew its colour and strength. Then we add ‘medium-grown’ teas from cooler gardens between 600 and 1,200m to give the blend its lighter, citrusier notes.

The Great Taste Award judges loved it, awarding it one star and praising it for being "flavorful and pleasantly astringent".

Our Loose Leaf Ceylon is a truly versatile brew. With its rich amber hue and fresh, zesty aromas, it suits the addition of a slice of lemon to bring out its zesty notes. Brewed richer, it also takes milk well, softening its briskness and emphasising its deeper flavors. Alternatively, enjoy the more refined and fragrant flavors of our loose leaf Ceylon as a premium iced tea. Dilute a strong infusion with lemon, sugar and ice water to make the ultimate hot weather pick-me-up.

For the perfect cup, boil fresh water and pour immediately, infusing for about 5 minutes.
