Tea with condensed milk

Traditional herbal drink prepared with rice,

valued leaves.

Pure black tea grown in the cool climates of
tropical Ceylon, this tea is distinct in both nature
and flavour. With a golden liquor and malty
undertones, this is Ceylon tea at its best.

Grown on lush tea estates, this green tea is
soothing, gentle and clean. Rich in anti
oxidantants, it is a delicate sweet-smelling brew
full of goodness.

A sophisticated brew of pure Ceylon tea,
infused with the zest of the bergamot orange. A
truly aromatic experience worthy of any tea
connoisseur.

A refreshing drink made from handpicked mint
leaves and a combination of exotic roots and
herbs. Well balanced and soothing to the
palette, this brew is robust yet refined.

Cool winds, tropical sunshine and pure spring
water nature the terraced tea fields in the
central highlands of Ceylon. With centuries of
tea growing tradition, only two leaves and a bud
are skillfully selected to create this
characteristically malty brew.

Made with nothing but delicate chamomile
flowers, this brew brings about a meditative
calm. Unadulterated goodness to unwind the
body and mind.

Fragrant lemongrass infuses with spicy ginger
to create a brew that elevates the senses.
Revitalize body and mind with every sip.

The perfect mix of sweet and spice, our Ceylon
cinnamon tea is made using the world’s best
cinnamon. Coupled with pure Ceylon black tea,
this brew is an ode to merchants who sailed the
ancient Silk Route in search of such treasure.

Refreshing, smooth and elegant in its subtlety,
the nuttiness of Ceylon green tea is uplifted
with the fragrance of Jasmine buds. Growing
side-by-side on the emerald tea slopes and now
united in one cup. Delicate and delicious.
