Today’s cup is a Ceylon Lemon Tea from Dils Tea / Tea Packs USA.
This Sri Lankan black tea pairs nicely with the lemon flavoring. While the body remains astringent the lemon does well to distract from the strength of the brew.
Sadly the aroma was much lighter than hoped and carried all of the strength of the brew, with none of the lemon.

Today’s cup is a Peach Ceylon Black Tea from Dils Tea / Tea Packs USA.
This particular tea is very peachy. The flavoring is notably stronger than anticipated, though you could smell it through the packaging.
The aroma once brewed though was more subtle. The flavor in the tail was also more nuanced than in the initial start of the sip.

I enjoy a Sri Lankan tea from time to time. From a Ceylon Silver Tips to a subtle orthodox black tea, some of the most interesting new teas today come from Sri Lankan farms. This FBOPF Extra Special from New Vithanakande which I picked up at the 2010 World Tea Expo is a stellar example.

Teatulia sources direct from Bangladesh and is a true patron of the Kazi Tea Estate there. Sustainable and single garden sourced, this black tea is nutty and every so slightly smokey.
