Lovers' Leap
Grown at the top of the Nuwara Eliya district. Pale in the cup and sharply floral — the one people are surprised is tea at all.
Single estate · Shipped monthly
Tea tastes like where it grew.
We ship one estate at a time, sorted by growing elevation — the single factor that changes the cup more than anything on the label. Start high and brisk, or low and malty.

This month
Three estates, picked in the same fortnight.
Every box names the estate, the elevation and the week it was picked. If a lot runs out we tell you rather than quietly substituting it.
Adawatte
An Uva estate that catches the dry monsoon wind. Unmistakable cooling note that only appears for about six weeks a year.
Nayapane
Low-country Ruhuna. Dark, malty and thick enough to hold milk without disappearing into it. The breakfast pot.
How it works
Three steps, then it runs itself.
01
Pick a band
High-grown, low-grown, or let us rotate through all four districts. Change it any month.
02
We ship on the 3rd
100 g of loose leaf, sealed within a week of picking, with the estate and elevation on the tin.
03
Tell us what landed
One tap to say more of this or less. The next box moves toward what you liked.
"I stopped buying supermarket tea in a week. The elevation thing sounds like marketing until you taste 1,900 next to 600."

Questions
Before you start.
Can I skip a month?
Yes, from the account page, up to the 1st. Skipped months don't count against anything and your place in the rotation is held.
What if I don't like a lot?
Tell us within the month and the next box is free. We'd rather know which estate missed than lose you over one tin.
Is this loose leaf or bags?
Loose leaf only. Grade is printed on every tin — BOP, FBOP or OP — because leaf size changes brewing time more than most people expect.
Do you ship outside Sri Lanka?
Not yet. We're working on it for 2027 — join the list and you'll hear first.
