Description
OPA Tea, The Orange Pekoe-A Tea in full, is a fine grade of tea which consists of slightly larger leaves, compared to other Orange Pekoe varieties like OP and OP1. OPA is the Ceylon black tea grade that has the boldest, large size leaves in appearance. Made of long bold and slightly twisted tea leaves. Once brewed, these teas have a rich aromatic forest-like scent and the lighter liquor generally has a light golden reddish color and a delicate lighter taste. This tea takes slightly longer time to brew compared to other teas, but has a unique taste compared to other smaller grades.
Late in 2019, I purchased 200 gm. I had wondered about making an international purchase (I live in Wisconsin, USA) and it took a while for the tea to arrive but this tea was so very delicious with a very intense flavor.
Still wary of making an international purchase, when I finished all the tea I shopped for black tea, in the USA, from several reputable online stores. None of the teas compared to the OPA I had bought here.
So I have returned and highly recommend this tea! š
The tea took a while to get to me, about a month, but BOY was it worth it! This has been the most fantastic tea I have had in a very long time, will be buying again in the future!
I received my order for OPA Ceylon Tea today and Iām very impressed with the quality and flavour.
