How to brew it

Brewing Instructions

PEKOE

Whole leaf, rolled and twisted rather than broken. Slower to open and gentler in the cup than anything cut.

  1. Measure

    4 g per cup

  2. Water

    200 ml

  3. Heat

    95 °C

  4. Steep

    4–5 min

Second steep
Yes, though the bergamot fades
Leaf form
Loose leaf
Water
Filtered, freshly boiled

One thing worth knowing — Citrus peel turns bitter if it sits. Lift the leaf out at the end of the range rather than leaving it in the pot.

Ceylon Highlands · Laxapana

From Laxapana Estate

Laxapana is shaped by dramatic waterfalls, fertile soils and the cool climate of Ceylon’s highlands. Its distinctive elevation creates teas with a bold aroma, balanced character and full bodied flavour, reflecting the richness of the landscape in every cup.
