Cinnamon Black
Superior quality 100% pure Ceylon Tea Natural Ingredients Free from artificial additives
The famed Island of Ceylon was sought by ancient explorers for its spices and, since the late 1800s, also for its tea. This tea is a combination of Ceylon’s finest produce – a Single Region Tea, grown at 4,000 feet elevation in the Uva valley of Sri Lanka, and Ceylon Cinnamon, known as ‘true Cinnamon’. When infused, the liquor appears golden brown and offers brightness, medium body and a sweet piquancy. The woody note in Cinnamon, with its pervasive fragrance, is enlivening and complements the tea perfectly with a spicy finish.
Details
Where It's Grown
On the sun-drenched eastern slopes of Sri Lanka's central highlands, Uva is home to some of the most aromatic teas in the world. Between 900 and 1,500 metres, the leaf matures slowly in cool mountain air, building a crisp, clean briskness and a pronounced aroma with hints of wood and honey.
Our Cinnamon Black (FBOP grade) brings this character to the cup: comforting, spicy & delicate.
From December to February the northeast monsoon brings rain to these eastern hills. Then, from July to September, the dry, cool kachan winds of the southwest monsoon sweep over the mountains. This gentle stress concentrates flavour in the leaf, giving Uva's seasonal teas their famous mellow, almost wintergreen-like fragrance.

“Warming spice”
Exactly what I wanted for winter mornings. Delicate cinnamon, not overpowering. Goes beautifully with honey.
“Comfort tea”
Spicy and soft at the same time. Reminds me of bakery smells. Quality leaf, clean cup.
“Delicious”
Cinnamon black done right. Comforting after dinner and still tastes good the next day if I cold-brew the leftovers.
