Review of Malden Tea Gourmet Ceylon Black Tea. Kenilworth Estate Loose Leaf Tea. Grade: Orange Pekoe. Net Wt: 1/2 lb. (Makes 100 Cups)

Very good tea.When Tevana stopped selling this tea. I had to find a different company to buy it from.Delicious black tea.

Product Description
Country of Origin: Sri Lanka Grade: OP (Orange Pekoe)Altitude: 3000 feet Manufacture Type: Orthodox Infusion: Noire tending coppery Cup Characteristics: Malty flavor that is full of life and very smooth. A fine tea after dinner or in the afternoon. World renowned for its strong full-bodied cup. Information: Kenilworth tea is known around the world for its full bodied strong liquors (liquors is a tea tasting terms for taste of the tea in the cup) and is considered to be the hallmark of Ceylon medium grown teas. This estate receives an average rainfall of 190 inches per year. The location of the estate is unique in that both the South West and North East monsoons bring rain to this particular region. Kenilworth is a very modern factory and certified under ISO 2002. The factory makes a whole range of various leaf grades from the classic Orange Pekoe (which is the grade of this tea) to BOPF used in tea bags. The Kenilworth Orange Pekoe grades are the most sought after by any medium grown tea garden.Hot tea brewing method: This tea is best enjoyed using 2-3 heaping teaspoons for a 6 cup teapot. Allow the tea to steep for 3-5 minutes, remove the leaves and pour. We do not recommend adding milk or sugar since this can mask some of the intrigue and subtle nuances of this vintage tea. Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 5 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.
