Idulgashinna Estate OP1 Green Organic
From the Uva district, this organic green tea offering has long, well-twisted leaves that produce a pale golden liquor with a smooth mouth feel. The light, sweet aroma is earthy with mineral nuances. The herbaceous cup has a stone fruit sweetness and a clean finish. This is a great choice for those who enjoy a less vegetal flavor.

The world-famous Uva teas owe their distinct character to the unique topographical position of this district. During late summer, extreme drying winds, called the "Cachan" by Sri Lankans, cause the tea bush leaves to close tightly, and the lowered moisture content of these closed leaves increases the balance of flavor. Green teas from this district offer a clean cup with a stimulating aroma.
