Artisan Collection - Ceylon premium Amethyst Purple Tea - 50g Loose Leaf

 
$35.99
 

Ceylon Amethyst is a captivating addition to the world of tea—a low-grown, hand-picked purple tea that represents an entirely new classification! Crafted from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, the same source as black, green, and other beloved teas, purple tea stands out with its stunning hue. While traditional teas often originate from dark green leaves, Ceylon Amethyst is derived from a unique, purple-leafed variety.

With a flavor profile reminiscent of oolong, this exquisite tea offers a delightful balance—lighter than black tea yet more nuanced than the vegetal notes of green tea.

 

100% Pure Ceylon Singe Estate Purple Tea - No Additives

Low Caffeine

The “purple” tea when brewed releases a very light purple ring around the inside of the teacup. This ring only is visible when the tea is hot and gives out a purple silhouette on the surface of the beverage. Purple leaf tea has a similar fruity and floral flavour profile to oolong, and is lighter than black tea but does not taste quite as vegetal as green tea. It overall a well-balanced tea that is both visually mystical and indulgingly gentle to the senses.
