Ceylon Silver Tip – Delicate, Rare, and Remarkably Smooth
A refined black tea made from the tenderest buds, Ceylon Silvertip is a rare and elegant cup with gentle character and natural sweetness.
What Makes It Special
Hand-plucked at high elevation in Sri Lanka, only the youngest tea buds are selected – their silver or golden tips a mark of purity and quality. The result is a clean, light infusion with very low tannins, ideal for slow sipping and quiet moments.
Origin & Craft
Grown in Sri Lanka’s central highlands, these buds are picked during the early flush and gently processed to preserve their natural character. Unlike fuller-bodied black teas, Silvertip is made for delicacy and clarity in the cup.
Tea Lover’s Tip
Drink slowly and without milk to appreciate the nuance — a perfect contrast to bolder breakfast blends.
