Signature Ceylon Tea Collection

Brew Ceylon tea by bringing fresh water to a full boil (100°C for black tea), adding one teabag or 2–3g of loose leaf per cup, and steeping for 3–5 minutes. Ceylon BOPF grade brews faster (2–3 minutes) due to finer particle size. Serve plain, with milk, or iced — Ceylon tea's clean character works across all preparation styles.

Ceylon tea is globally recognised as one of the world's premium tea origins. Sri Lanka's unique combination of elevation, rainfall, and soil produces teas with distinctive character that varies by region. The Lion Logo certification from the Sri Lanka Tea Board is the mark of quality assurance for genuine Ceylon origin tea.

Ceylon tea is versatile — drink it plain, with milk, with lemon, or iced. Black Ceylon tea (BOPF grade) produces a full-bodied cup that pairs well with milk. Lighter grades like OP are best enjoyed plain. Flavoured variants like Earl Grey or Masala Chai follow their own serving conventions. Brew time: 3–5 minutes at full boil for black tea.

Ceylon tea is available through speciality tea retailers, online marketplaces, and supermarket premium ranges. For wholesale and private label supply — where you want your own branding on certified Ceylon tea — Samley supplies directly to brands, retailers, and distributors from 50,000 units.

Ceylon tea's reputation rests on Sri Lanka's unique terroir — six growing regions at varying elevations producing distinctly different flavour profiles from a single island. The Lion Logo certification guarantees origin authenticity and quality. Ceylon tea's clean processing standards, diverse grade system, and range from delicate OP to robust BOPF give buyers flexibility that few single-origin teas can match.

All 19 Signature variants use BOPF grade — Broken Orange Pekoe Fannings — as the base. BOPF delivers a consistent, full-strength liquor that carries added flavourings effectively, making it the ideal base for flavoured tea blends in teabag and pyramid bag formats.

Yes. Private label production is available from 50,000 units per variant and includes custom branding, outer packaging, and all certification documentation. Custom blends beyond the standard 19 variants can also be developed using the BOPF base.

The Signature range is available in pyramid bags, standard double-chamber bags, foiled individual envelopes, and bulk loose leaf. Format selection depends on retail positioning and market requirements — pyramid bags command premium pricing while double-chamber is cost-efficient for volume retail.
