Ceylon Kenilworth OP
Ceylon is known for its bold, smooth flavour and fragrant golden liquor. It is a perfect breakfast beverage on its own and is often used as the base for many blends. It is the quintessential, classic black tea! Try out Ceylon, a delicious Orange Pekoe (OP is the highest grade of tea leaf, not orange flavor!)
