Mellow Black Tea

http://kaleytea.ivoryia.com/product/mellow-black-tea/

Tea leaves withered by rainforest winds are gently handrolled on wicker baskets to produce long twisted tea needles. A mild golden cup with fragrance of caramel brings out a bouquet of sublime flavours. Flowers enmeshed in fresh hay are followed by a touch of bergamot orange, caramel and bee’s honey.

Shake out morning blues with Mellow Black.

Rebels Tea by Mama D

http://kaleytea.ivoryia.com/product/rebels-tea-by-mama-d/

1989. War and insurgency engulfed Sri Lanka. Tea factories were forced shut. Tea was hard to find. Undaunted, Mama D, our Master Tea Maker Dissa’s mum rekindled a century old tradition. She sundried hand picked tea leaves, pounded on a stone mortar and fired on an open hearth. Voila, a full-bodied strong cuppa of slightly smoked black tea.

Be inspired by Mama D.

Kaley Teas are forest fresh

Our tea garden is surrounded by a multitude of forests which merge with Sinharaja, Sri Lanka’s largest rainforest and UNESCO world natural heritage site. A part of our land is a protected rainforest whilst our tea garden is being converted to an Agro-forest. Virgin soils, water from streams and mountain springs and many gifts of nature make our terroir, rather special. Kaley, forest in a native tongue of Ceylon, encapsulates these milieus.

Kaley Teas are handcrafted

Kaley Teas are made with the finest tea leaves that are selected to perfection and handpicked. These leaves are naturally withered by the winds that waft from the rainforest and hand rolled, as folklore has it, with the healing palms of artisans.

Kaley Teas are filled with healing mystical flavours

Tea is a healthy beverage. Growing organically and regeneratively in a forest surrounding enhances the healing goodness and natural flavours of tea, manyfold. Handpicking the finest quality tea leaves, hand rolling in very small batches and packing afresh within a day of plucking captures the best of nature, of tea and of our artisans and yields a harmonious bouquet of healing mystical flavours.

The quantity, quality and temperature of water
the quantity and quality of tea
the time of steeping
make a world of difference to the flavour in your cup.

Sip your Kaley Tea slowly,

without hurrying into some unknown distant future; reverently, as if the whole world revolves around that single cup, capturing an old-fashioned stillness of time.

Stay in this moment,

and let the aroma and harmonious bouquet of fresh and natural, charm your senses.
