Ceylon Green Tea

A premium green tea with a remarkable flavor profile, sourced from the Small Organic Farmers Association (SOFA) in Sri Lanka.

It has been harvested from the lush Uva region of central Sri Lanka, at elevations around 1300-1600 meters where the cool climate and rich soil contributes to its exceptional quality.  SOFA is a collective of small-scale farmers committed to organic farming and sustainable agriculture. It provides members with training in organic practises and fair-trading practises that provides autonomous conditions and equitable compensation to farmers. Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, this tea adheres to stringent organic standards, ensuring purity and sustainability.

This aromatic and sweet tea features a delightful tropical twist, with notes of mango, creamy vanilla, and sweet flowers, enriched by a playful hint of gummy bears. It's perfect for adventurous aficionados looking to try something uniquely different while supporting a good cause.

Additional Information

Black tea production

Green tea

The production of green tea involves several distinct phases, each critical to developing the tea's unique flavour, color, and aroma:

  • Heating: Freshly picked tea leaves are quickly heated through pan-firing, steaming, or baking to deactivate enzymes and prevent oxidation, preserving the green color and fresh flavor.
  • Shaping: The leaves are rolled, twisted, or shaped into various forms to enhance their visual appeal and influence flavor release upon brewing.
  • Drying: The shaped leaves are carefully dried to reduce moisture content, stabilize the flavor, and ensure a long shelf life.

Each step is meticulously controlled to achieve the desired quality and characteristics of the finished green tea.

Organic certification

Organic certification and testing

All our teas are organic certified and tested for pesticides, ensuring they meet stringent quality standards. We steadfastly reject the use of artificial flavors and concentrated aromas. Our approach to creating flavored and blended teas is deeply intentional, involving the in-house selection and combination of each ingredient. Our commitment extends to using only organically certified, whole spices, deliberately avoiding grinding them into fine powders. This choice ensures our teas remain pure and clear, as finely ground spices can release excessive power into the brew, compromising its clarity. The essence of our fruit flavors comes from organic essential oils, obtained through cold press technology to preserve the natural qualities without the degradation that can occur with heat. Proudly, every ingredient in Nannuo Pop is organically certified, embodying our unwavering commitment to purity and quality, without exceptions. This commitment to quality and safety reflects our dedication to providing the best possible product to our customers, with a focus on health and environmental sustainability.
