A taste of sunshine in every cup. Our Mango Black Tea is a premium Ceylon tea blended with natural flavors of ripe tropical mango.

History & Heritage

This blend is built on Ceylon black tea from Sri Lanka. The island's tea story began in 1867, when Scottish planter James Taylor planted its first tea field at Loolecondera, near Kandy. After coffee rust destroyed the coffee plantations, tea spread across the hill country, and Ceylon became known for bright black teas that blend well with fruit.

Interesting Facts

• The base tea is a Pekoe grade grown at 4,800 to 7,600 feet and made in the orthodox style.

Tasting Notes & Pairings

Mango tea has a wonderful sweetness that complements the tea rather than overpowering it, and it will remind you of sunny summer days. It is excellent hot or iced, with or without milk. Pair it with spicy dishes, grilled shrimp, or coconut cake.

Brewing tips (general guideline): use 1 rounded teaspoon (about 2–3 g) per 8 oz of freshly boiled water (205–212°F), steeped 3–5 minutes. Adjust to taste.
