Orange Pekoe (OPA) OPA Tea, The Orange Pekoe-A Tea in full, is a fine grade of tea which consists of slightly larger leaves, compared to other Orange Pekoe varieties like OP and OP1.

Once brewed, these teas have a rich aromatic forest-like scent and the lighter liquor generally has a light golden reddish color and a delicate lighter taste. This tea takes slightly longer time to brew compared to other teas, but has unique taste compared to other smaller grades.
The black tea leaves that we sell have many types, one of which is the black tea leaf Broken Orange Pekoe. It's processed from the selected tea leaves through the process of drying and various other processes, resulting in several types of black tea. For this type of black tea Broken Orange Pekoe is the result of dried tea leaves which have a somewhat coarse texture so that the leaf shape is still visible but not intact. The tea leaf products we sell are produced from a clean production process so that quality dry tea leaf products are produced. We accept Maklon/Toll Manufacturing where we produce requested products, so the buyers or brand owners can sell the final outcome of the tea. Price listed is for each kilogram.
