Another brilliant hand-rolled black tea from Sri Lanka, it has a lovely smooth vibrant taste with hints of spice coupled a gentle lingering brisk finish. I'm very excited to become the first British tea vendor to offer one of the best teas I found on my trip to Sri Lanka in 2025. Rosyth Tea Estate are a family run operation (Neil, Farzana and their son Oli) who have resurrected tea production in Rosyth following a fire which rendered the local tea factory inoperable in 2022. They have created a community driven small scale production facility focussed on producing high quality hand made teas with a share of profits going directly back to the workers.
