Orange Pekoe

Orange Pekoe is an artisanal black tea from Monkeytail Tea, crafted Sinharaja rainforest region in Sri Lanka. Here, tea bushes thrive beneath the shade of an ancient pine forest. Skilled workers hand-pick the young leaves, then roll them for two hours, developing the tea’s signature character.

The infusion is light in colour, with a floral aroma accented by notes of citrus peel and subtle woody undertones. On the palate, you’ll taste bright hints of lemon, bergamot, and honey.

Monkeytail Tea is dedicated not only to producing fine, handcrafted tea but also to supporting the local village community, fostering education, and creating meaningful employment.

Storing loose leaf tea correctly is important to preserve its freshness and flavour. Keep it away from the four elements that affect quality: air, heat, light, and moisture.
