Kenilworth is a wonderful Ceylon black tea, featuring large leaves and full oxidation. Grown halfway up the Central Highlands in the western Dimbula area, it's a "medium-grown" tea. The moderate climate produces a liquor that's neither brisk like highland teas nor bold like lowland ones. The especially smooth, rose-brown liquor has made Kenilworth Garden a consistent favorite with our Ceylon drinkers.
