Green Velvet
Superior quality 100% pure Ceylon Tea Natural Ingredients Free from artificial additives
Green Velvet is Chun Mee (CM1) pure Ceylon green tea from the eastern slopes of Uva — tightly curved leaves with a grey-green look that blossom fully in the cup when you pour boiling water over them.
The liquor is velvety light green with a sharp, roasted edge and a forest-like aroma. Brisk, full-bodied and distinctive — a green tea for drinkers who like strength, character and refreshing clarity in every sip.

Where It's Grown
On the sun-drenched eastern slopes of Sri Lanka's central highlands, Uva is home to some of the most aromatic teas in the world. Between 900 and 1,500 metres, the leaf matures slowly in cool mountain air, building a crisp, clean briskness and a pronounced aroma with hints of wood and honey.
Our Green Velvet (CM1 grade) brings this character to the cup: full bodied and strong.
From December to February the northeast monsoon brings rain to these eastern hills. Then, from July to September, the dry, cool kachan winds of the southwest monsoon sweep over the mountains. This gentle stress concentrates flavour in the leaf, giving Uva's seasonal teas their famous mellow, almost wintergreen-like fragrance.
