Ceylon Alton Estate Tea BOP is a Ceylon Black Tea that is carefully and traditionally made at the famous Alton Tea Estate; the ‘BOP’, which is ‘Broken Orange Pekoe’, designates the finely cut tea leaves which contribute to each infusion having a richer and stronger flavour.
This excellent tea produces a pleasant dark brew with a full body and is suitable to be drunk all during the year, no matter if it’s a cold winter morning or a sunny summer afternoon.
Each 8-ounce cup has approximately 45 mg of caffeine and therefore gives people who need a bit more energy a revitalising boost. Above all else, each portion is packed fresh to order at our factory in Kent, ensuring that every drink has unmatched quality and consistency.
The Alton Tea Estate
Located in the stunning Maskeliya area of Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka, the Alton Tea Estate is a clear example of the country’s extensive tea-growing tradition. The beautiful plantation is situated at elevations between 4,700 and 5,550 feet above sea level, taking advantage of the cool climate and misty mornings which cause the tea grown in Nuwara Eliya to be some of the best in the world.
The estate covers an impressive area of 350 hectares (865 acres) and combines lush greenery, rolling hills, and a strong commitment to producing excellent tea.
At the centre of the estate is its modern tea factory, where traditional methods are combined with innovative techniques. This plant processes about 2,400 kilograms of top-quality tea each day.
Ceylon Alton Estate Tea BOP, which is well known for its light, floral flavour and exceptional quality, is part of the range of fine teas offered. The leaves are carefully picked and meticulously made into shape so that the resulting tea shows through in its purity and the characteristics of its highland source.
