ALL THE BLACK TEAS LISTED HERE ARE OF SPECIAL SEASONAL QUALITY MADE SPECIFICALLY FOR US AT THE INDIVIDUAL ESTATE FACTORIES:

PESTICIDES RESIDUES:
There is considerable concern by many consumers about pesticide levels in food products. Ceylon teas are controlled by special regulations on restriction in the use of pesticides. There is a special regulatory mechanism in place to register acceptable pesticides for import and then a licensing process for their use only when bad disease outbreaks have been notified and cleared for treatment. As a result of this strict policy Ceylon teas were declared the cleanest teas in the world with regard to spray chemical residues in 1997 and that status continues to this day. Some background to this can be seen in the 'NEWS' section and also in the 'Health' section of this website.

BLACK OR GREEN TEA for HEALTH ?:
Up to now it has been proposed that Green teas are the healthy option for you. This view is outdated and superseded by years of research into Black teas. Both teas possess these health advantages as long as they are of the Camellia Sinensis tea bush. This does not relate to Robibos, Mate herbal teas or fruit teas, none of these named teas are from the Camellia Sinensis bush. See the Health section for full information and the booklet on sale below. Consumers should however understand that these health promoting factors can be degraded under certain conditions in manufacture and where teas are exposed to air as in some re-packing situations as tea is extremely hygroscopic.

Western New Season BOP ........... Dickoya District:
Winner of SILVER at the London 2004 International Annual Taste Awards
Not far from Brunswick and yet we enter this golden valley and the tea changes yet again. Produces a wonderful aromatic flavoury tea with an unusual yellowy green liquor. The liquor possesses the typical seasonal character of this special area which exhibits an aroma.

Uva Seasonal Dark Liquor - Uva District
Winner of GOLD at the London 2005 International Annual Taste Awards
Winner of SILVER at the London 2001 International Annual Taste Awards

Made in the unique world famous Uva district season. We have this manufactured after midnight for the coolness to develop the volatile flavoury oils at this time. Produces a rounded liquor with some colour and a delicate flowery flavour and aroma. Will balance milk if required. For my recommendations without milk. Click - More information.

Uva Seasonal Light Liquor FBOP Uva District (North):
Winner of GOLD at the London 2006 International Annual Taste Awards
Winner of SILVER at the London 2005 International Annual Taste Awards
Winner of SILVER at the London 2002 International Annual Taste Awards

Situated at the edge of the famous Uva Malwatta valley. A light coloured liquor with a high level of flavour from the hot drying wind, is aromatic and yet has a smoothness. The connoisseur's delight. We do not recommend using milk with this tea. A trio of classics which really epitomise the gulf between tea bags and proper leaf teas.

For awards, comments on dark and light liquor plus brew details see - more information in the heading bar above.
