Ceylon Golden Tips Tea – 40g

Tasting Notes & Distinctive Features:

Unveiling the soul of the South, Knuckles Valley’s Ceylon Down South Handmade Black Tea is a rich embodiment of tradition, terroir, and time-honored skill. Sourced from Sri Lanka’s southern highland gardens, each leaf is hand-picked at the peak of freshness and gently shaped by artisans whose craft transforms the harvest into a bold expression of character. Through a slow, deliberate process of rolling and oxidizing, the tea acquires its deep aroma and striking presence, echoing the warmth of the southern sun. The brew itself unfolds like a story—full-bodied yet gracefully smooth, offering a lush malty backbone layered with soft notes of cocoa and golden syrup. As it cools, a subtle hint of sweet fruit emerges, lingering like a memory on the palate. Every sip is textured and refined, delivering a complexity that’s hard to find and impossible to forget. It's a tea that commands attention but never overwhelms, crafted for those who savor nuance. The handmade nature of this black tea is its secret signature. Unlike machine-processed counterparts, each batch reveals slight variations—natural, beautiful imperfections that speak to the authenticity of the process. Whether sipped at sunrise or shared during quiet moments, it connects you not just to taste, but to the story behind the cup: soil, leaf, hand, and spirit in harmony. Ideal for those who seek strength without compromise, Ceylon Down South Handmade Black Tea is your perfect companion—be it to energize your morning, deepen your afternoon ritual, or accompany reflective evenings. Enjoy it as it is, bold and undiluted, or soften its richness with a splash of milk. Either way, it offers the comfort of craftsmanship and the luxury of knowing you’ve chosen something extraordinary.

Tasting Notes & Distinctive Features:

Knuckles Valley crafts teas not simply for drinking, but for delighting in every mood and moment. This collection, famed for its excellence across continents, is a celebration of diversity—from vibrant everyday brews to rare artisan infusions. Among these treasures are the designer gourmet blends and legendary connoisseur's picks: Ceylon Silver Tips and the exquisite Seasonal Flush White Tea. Each is created with reverence, guided by nature’s rhythm and perfected by hand. The Seasonal Flush is a phenomenon as rare as it is remarkable—harvested just twice a year in the highlands of Nuwara Eliya at 6,000 feet above sea level. At first light, skilled pickers gather only the most delicate buds, no longer than three centimetres, enveloped in silk to preserve purity. Sun-dried and hand-rolled, these needle-like silvery buds yield a pale liquor with ethereal softness, layered with a fleeting greenish nuance of high-grown character. The infusion is not just mild and elusive—it’s poetry in a cup. Distinct in appearance and uncompromising in purity, Knuckles Valley’s Ceylon Silver Tips represent white tea in its truest form. While many claim to offer the luxury of white tea, few stay true to its essence—the single bud harvest, revered locally for its quality and rarity. Its velvety texture and soft floral aroma create a refined, understated brew that quietly captivates the senses. The visual beauty of the unfurled buds alone adds a moment of awe to every pour. In a market teeming with imitations, Knuckles Valley stands firm in authenticity. Many “white teas” sold globally are diluted blends, containing mere traces of true white buds—sometimes less than 2%. But here, purity reigns. This is white tea as it was meant to be: rare, unadulterated, and elevated into a sublime experience. Knuckles Valley’s white tea is a gift to those who seek nuance, heritage, and the quiet luxury of excellence, one impeccable cup at a time.
