There is a wide variety of flavor profiles when it comes to Orange Pekoe black tea. We source our Lovers Leap (Orange Pekoe) tea directly from Sri Lanka, where the growing conditions yield a fruitier, sweeter taste. The infusion is medium-bodied with floral notes and a copper-orange color. Try it with a splash of milk to complete the flavor.
