Ceylon Rose Congou Black Tea
Ceylon Rose Congou Black Tea is a refined black tea from the highlands of Nuwara Eliya in Sri Lanka, cultivated at around 1,500 metres above sea level. The long and slightly open leaves are delicately scented with rose through a production method that avoids the use of liquid flavourings, thus preserving the tea’s natural elegance. The infusion stands out for its harmonious, smooth and persistent floral profile, where the rose note accompanies with balance the rounded structure of Ceylon black tea.
