Mike visited this lovely estate located high above the small town of Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka. This area is among the highest areas to grow tea, and the weather is constantly changing. Sometimes sunny, but often cloudy or rainy. This makes for beautiful and lush tea plants. It does not have as distinct a growing season as the areas to the west (Dimbula) or the east (Uva). The teas from this area have a flavor of their own—light citrus notes.

Details:In the old tea town of Nuwara Eliya, one of the prettiest gardens in the world produces Lover's Leap. From high in Central Sri Lanka, the teas are light, with hints of lemon in the cup.
Dry Leaves:Medium sized tan leaves.
Liquor:Light brown.
Aroma:Light citrus aromas.
Flavors:The tea has mild flavors, and they tend toward the dark side of the citrus family. This tea, like many BLTs (British Legacy Teas), works well with milk and sugar.
