The unique climatic conditions in Sri Lanka, originally named Ceylon, produce the exquisite high and low grown blends, renowned for taste and aroma. Teas from Sri Lanka are known as Ceylon tea and are characterized by a bright, lively flavor. The excellent quality black teas are based upon age-old recipes, using the finest mountain-grown tea. 100% pure Ceylon Black Tea is a classic blend taken to new heights.
This Ceylon Breakfast Tea proves how much more interesting tea is compared to coffee. The complexity of its flavor never gets tiresome. I can echo other’s comments about its rich, smooth, slightly nutty flavor. Like the Tekola Earl Grey, it holds its own when milk is added. One small feature I appreciate is how the string tags don’t flip into the pot or mug when the hot water is poured in. A welcome design feature! And, the tags actually repurpose nicely as bookmarks.
I have been purchasing Tékola teas for 5+ years. I like their black breakfast tea and their Apple tea. They are smooth and rich and I feel of high quality. Don’t forget you get 25 bags per box vs the 20 you get from other brands.
The quality of this tea (and of all Tekola teas) is unrivaled. It is smooth, fragrant and bold enough to give me just enough pep to power through the day without feeling jittery. I have been recommending this tea to my fellow tea-hounds.

We try lots of tea bags with Trader Joes, Starbucks, and others. Tekola has a great perfume that reminds of brewed tea, tastes as good as loose tea leafs, and has a rich dark color. For a tea bag tea to taste as good as brewed tea, it says something. You gotta try it.
Tekola Black Tea tops all teas. It is flavourful and pure. It is the only tea I will drink. Their other flavours are also fantastic. The Green, Ginger, Lemon and the new Chamomile are beyond all expectations. Keep up the great work Tekola!
This tea is excellent. I just wish it hadn't taken me years to find it. I was most surprised by the strength of the tea. I usually have to leave the teabag in my cup for the duration of my drink just to get the strength that I prefer. With Tekola teas, it steeps for just 3 minutes, and the strength is perfect. I can finally offer a real variety of teas for any guests I invite over. This is one of the best deals I have seen for the price. I am very satisfied.
My new favorite black tea. Highly recommend it. Authentic Ceylon tea flavor. This tea takes me back to my travel memories days to India and SiriLanka. Very smooth and flavorful.
Another one of my favorites. I have become a black tea drinker since first tasting this tea. My palate can tell the differences between other kinds of black tea and this one very easily. Tekola's black tea is very smooth and the smell is heavenly, so I brew it first thing in the morning. It's all the caffeine that I wish for before leaving home. Oh, oh and when you compare it to other slightly cheaper but inferior in quality brands I see in supermarkets, I always opt for better taste.
TEA A drink from history, A traditional custom, A "party".....all dressed up, A "picker upper" for anytime of the day, A reason for friends to "sit down" for a chat, All of the above, requires good quality TEA ! This is TEKOLA ! Thank you, for the possibilities ! A VERY GOOD cup of tea !
