About This Item
About This Item
This heritage tea originates in Ruhuna, Sri Lanka, where small family-run farms grow the leaves using sustainable growing practices.
- Leaves are handpicked at the peak of freshness to maximize flavor
- They're lightly pan-fired and then sun-dried, a process that preserves their bold character
- The leaves are 100% pure and naturally dried, with no additives or preservatives
The Traditions of Authentic Persian Black Tea

This tea holds a treasured place in Afghan and Iranian culture, bringing a sense of tradition and connection into today's homes. Customers frequently mention how this blend elevates their everyday ritual - one enthusiast even noted that its flavor makes every single cup feel comforting.

How to Brew Persian Tea:
1. Measure out your tea leaves, using roughly one teaspoon per cup of water.
2. Fill a kettle with cold, fresh water. Traditionally this is done using a samovar, though a regular kettle or pot works fine if you don't have one.
3. Once the water reaches a boil, pour some into the teapot to warm it up, then swirl it around and pour it out.
4. Add the tea leaves to the teapot, adjusting the amount depending on how strong you like your tea.
5. Slowly pour the boiling water over the leaves and let it steep for about 5 to 10 minutes.
6. Set out small tea glasses - their size makes it easy to serve multiple rounds during a gathering.
7. Pour the brewed tea into the glasses, diluting with additional hot water to taste.
8. Some people like to add rose flower to their Persian black tea - this is optional but recommended.
9. You can also add a sugar cube or a bit of lemon to bring out more flavor, if you'd like.
10. Then simply relax and enjoy the tea slowly, sharing the moment with family and friends. Making this tea is meant to be a joyful process, so take your time and savor every sip.
