About This Tea
Cinnamon Tea stands as one of the finest expressions of tea craftsmanship from Various, Sri Lanka. The production process involves leaves that are carefully dried and prepared from botanical ingredients rather than the Camellia sinensis tea plant, a technique developed through generations of careful experimentation and refinement. The geographical conditions unique to Various give this tea its unmistakable character, earning it recognition among tea enthusiasts worldwide.
When properly prepared, Cinnamon Tea delivers a remarkable sensory journey. The aroma offers sweet, warm with spicy cinnamon, setting the stage for a taste that is sweet, spicy with cinnamon warmth. No two infusions are exactly alike — the leaves continue to reveal different facets of their character with each steeping. The caffeine profile of this tea is noteworthy: it is completely caffeine-free, making it an excellent choice for evening enjoyment or for those avoiding stimulants entirely.
Ceylon tea, as Sri Lankan tea is traditionally known, has been synonymous with quality since the 19th century when tea replaced coffee as the island's primary export crop.
Preparing Cinnamon Tea requires attention to temperature and timing. Water at 95°C to 100°C brings out the best qualities of the leaf, while steeping for 5 to 10 minutes achieves the ideal balance of flavor and body. A ratio of 2.0g per 100ml of water is recommended. With up to 1 possible infusions, each cup provides a new opportunity to appreciate the nuances of this exceptional tea.
The appeal of Cinnamon Tea in contemporary tea culture reflects a broader movement toward mindful consumption and appreciation of artisanal products. As more people seek alternatives to mass-produced beverages, teas like Cinnamon Tea offer an authentic connection to terroir, tradition, and taste. Each cup tells a story — of the land where the leaves were grown, the hands that processed them, and the centuries of knowledge that guided every step of their journey from garden to cup.
