Import Ceylon Broken Orange Pekoe 1 — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Sri Lanka

Ceylon Broken Orange Pekoe 1 is a semi-leaf black tea produced from Camellia sinensis in Sri Lanka, sourced year-round from low-country estates. The grade consists of well-twisted, broken leaf pieces that deliver a robust cup with a malt-like flavour and caramel aftertaste, making it a popular choice for breakfast tea when brewed with milk and sugar. The tea is characterised by its strong liquor and balanced strength, achieved through the specific leaf size and processing methods typical of the BOP 1 category.

The composition includes a water extract of 32%, alkalinity at 1.0%, acid insoluble ash at 1.0% and crude fibre at 16.5%. These parameters align with standard Ceylon black tea specifications for this grade, which typically feature a moisture content below 8% and a total ash content under 4%. The broken leaf structure allows for faster infusion, releasing a full-bodied profile that retains clarity and depth. Sri Lankan BOP 1 is often sourced from estates at elevations below 600 metres, where the climate contributes to its distinct character.

This grade is primarily used by bulk buyers for blending or as a standalone offering in markets where a strong, flavourful tea is preferred.
