This compact box holds 25 individually enveloped tea bags of 2.5 g each, 62.5 g in total, of Mevlâna Sade Yaprak Çay in the Goran-Tee Luxus-Mischung blend. The box states that it is pure Ceylon tea packed in Sri Lanka, and it carries the Ceylon Tea lion logo. Sade yaprak means plain leaf tea, so the cup is a straightforward black tea without added flavourings.
Each bag is wrapped in its own envelope, which helps keep the aroma until you are ready to brew. That makes the box easy to take to work, on a trip or to the table when guests come over. Put a bag into a tulip-shaped tea glass or a cup, pour over freshly boiled water and leave it for three to five minutes, depending on how strong you like it. Serve it plain or with a sugar cube or a slice of lemon, and offer something sweet such as lokum, baklava or biscuits alongside.
Store the box in a dry place, closed and away from moisture and strong smells, so the tea keeps its aroma. Check the box for the best-before date.
