Import Ceylon Broken Orange Pekoe Fanning (Bopf) — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Sri Lanka

Ceylon Broken Orange Pekoe Fanning (BOPF) is a finely graded black tea from Camellia sinensis, produced in Sri Lanka’s higher elevated regions. The grade consists of uniform, black-leaf particles smaller than BOP but without tips, resulting in a bright liquor with a strong, consistent taste that retains the characteristics of BOP. This makes it particularly suitable for tea bags, where quick infusion and strong flavour are essential.

The tea’s chemical composition includes a water extract of 32%, alkalinity at 1.0%, acid insoluble ash at 1.0% and crude fibre at 16.5%. These values are typical for Ceylon BOPF, which often features a moisture content below 7% and a total ash content under 3.5%. The smaller particle size of BOPF ensures a faster release of flavour, making it ideal for blends or single-serve formats. The high elevation of the estates contributes to its bright colour and brisk character.

BOPF is commonly used by manufacturers of tea bags and instant tea products, as well as by bulk buyers looking for a cost-effective, strong-flavoured tea.
