For Cassis

All black tea should be steeped for 2-3 minutes at a temperature of 210°F or 99°C.

Ceylon is a black tea from Sri Lanka. The country Sri Lanka was once referred to as Ceylon.

Like all tea, black tea can be drunk whenever one sees fit. That being said, due to the high caffeine content associated with this tea type we recommend consuming this tea in the morning or early afternoon. Ceylon black tea is a perfect afternoon pick me up.

TEALEAVES Ceylons have a palate experience that is exquisite, lively, and brisk.

Good but very expensive

This is a worthy substitute for Willow Tea Rooms’ version, which I haven’t been able to get lately. It’s much better than Ahmad (which has some bizarre undertones) and Twinings. Stronger than John Barney’s good-tasting but weak cassis tea. The price is quite steep however, so it will be a rare purchase.

great tea

Cassis tea brings my back to my grandma's garden. She would make black currant syrups that we would use winter time in our teas. I love that this black tea is not super bitter, and its subtle cassis aftertaste.
