JAVA OP ORGANIC
Award winning organic Java orange pekoe tea.
About the tea
Hailing from the lush, mountainous regions of Western Java, our Organic Java Orange Pekoe is a testament to the island’s rich tea-growing heritage. Cultivated at altitudes exceeding 1,000 meters, these tea bushes thrive in the ideal conditions of fertile soil, abundant rainfall, and cool mountain air. Enveloped by dense, verdant forests, the pristine environment ensures the purity and quality of the tea leaves.
The mountainous regions of West Java, in particular, have been prized for their tea-growing potential since the colonial era. The cool, misty highlands provide the perfect environment for tea plants to flourish, producing high-quality leaves with exceptional flavor and aroma. It is not without reason that this OP Premium received awards at the Paris and Japan Tea Festival.
The distinctive character of this black tea is immediately apparent. Its rough, open leaf unfurls to reveal a vibrant, copper-coloured infusion. As the aroma fills the air, you’ll be greeted by a delightful blend of malty sweetness and subtle spiciness. The taste experience is equally captivating, with a complex profile that balances bold, full-bodied flavours with delicate nuances of chocolate.
