Tea harvested in the spring in the Nuwara Eliya mountains of Sri Lanka. It harks from one of the finest tea gardens, the Pedro Tea Estate, which sells tea under the brand name Lovers Leap. The copper-coloured tea leaves give rise to an infusion that is dark orange to almost red in shade. The scent is dominated by apricot and the mirabelle plum, while the taste reveals sweet apricot with juicy orange at the close.
