Akbar Ceylon Favourite High Grown Black Tea, 100 Tea Bags 200g (7.1oz)
Akbar Ceylon Favourite High Grown Black Tea is a 200g Sri Lankan high-altitude estate Ceylon black tea in a 100-bag convenience pack — a brisk, bright, characterfully assertive high-grown Ceylon from Akbar, sourced from the highest-elevation tea estates of Sri Lanka where cool mountain temperatures, mist, and intense equatorial sunlight produce teas of exceptional brightness and complexity. Akbar is a Colombo-based Sri Lankan tea company founded in 1907, and their Ceylon Favourite High Grown label represents the premium-terroir tier of the Akbar range — teas sourced from estates above 1200 metres in Sri Lanka's finest growing regions, where the combination of cool nights, misty mornings, and high-altitude intensity produces the sharper, more pungent, more complex tea character that distinguishes high-grown Ceylon from milder lowland styles. High-grown Ceylon tea is among the world's most prized tea categories — the altitude terroir of estates in Uva, Nuwara Eliya, and Dimbula produces teas with a distinctive brisk character, bright amber liquor, and the clean, slightly menthol-tinged finish that tea experts consider the hallmark of the finest Ceylon black teas. Brew 1 teabag in freshly boiled water for 3-4 minutes, serve with or without milk, and enjoy as the brisk, characterful high-grown Ceylon cup that rewards quality ingredients with genuine complexity.
