Uva Highlands

Uva Highlands is a high-grown Ceylon Pekoe from Sri Lanka's eastern slopes, where the famous highland winds strip moisture from the leaves and concentrate their character. The result is a brisk, intense black tea with a cooling wintergreen note. In fact, it’s the same compound, methyl salicylate, that gives mint its kick. It is a tea that wakes you up and demands your attention. A splash of milk rounds it beautifully, or drink it straight if you want the full bracing effect.
