The leaves are expertly crafted into wiry shapes with a striking black appearance and silver spine, reflecting careful processing and high-quality selection. Once brewed, the tea produces a rich golden liquor that is both visually appealing and full of character.

Brew with freshly drawn boiled water for 3–5 minutes to unlock its full flavour. It can be enjoyed on its own for a pure tasting experience or enhanced with a touch of honey or lemon for added brightness.

Crafted from premium Ceylon tea leaves, Ceylon Vithanakande Silver Tip delivers a sophisticated and versatile tea experience, perfect for those seeking a high-quality loose leaf tea with elegance and complexity.

Excellent balance, not too bitter, not too strong. As a tea lover, this is one of my favourites.

Extremely pleasant and helpful advice in selecting a number of teas. 
Once again I can experience great quality tea as opposed to overpriced "swept tea dust" from supermarkets sold as loose leaf tea.
Fast delivery in great eco friendly packaging.
Highly recommend High Teas London for quality experience.
