Kirkoswald Estate Dimbula Black Tea

Description

Kirkoswald Estate Dimbula Black Tea

Kirkoswald Estate Dimbula Black Tea is from Sri Lanka, in the Bogo Valley of the Dimbula region. Grown at 4000 – 4500 feet above sea level, it has a good leaf appearance, with a full bodied lovely flavor. The cup is coppery bright with golden notes.

Tended with care on the lush gardens of Kirkoswald, this distinctive Ceylon has the deep floral aroma and sweet notes that characterize the very best teas of Sri Lanka. Drenched by monsoons through the late summer months, teas from this region are renowned for their robust flavors and bright liquor. Add milk and enjoy this rich brew as the ideal mid-morning or afternoon tea.

For our Breakfast Teas, you should consider our English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, or Scottish Breakfast. They all hold up well to a spot of milk if so inclined.

For other single estate black teas, you need to look at our Kenilworth Estate Ceylon, Pettiagalla Estate VCeylon, Tarajulie Estate Assam, or our Castleton Estate Darjeeling teas. They all have their own characteristics based on their country, environment, soil and weather conditions.
