Ceylon Kandy Silver Tip: grown in Sri Lanka's mid levels
Ceylon Kandy Silver Tip is a full bodied fragrant tea produced not far from the ancient capital of Ceylon, Polonnaruwa. The leaf is wiry with evident long, silver tips giving an overwhelmingly floral aroma. It produces a rich reddish-gold liquor with good body and a lovely fragrant character. Use one teaspoon per cup and one for the pot with freshly boiling water and infuse for three minutes. Drink with a little milk.
Tea from Grey's Teas
Our teas are loose leaf and we specialise in large leaf grades. All are made using traditional orthodox methods. Our teas are from named tea gardens or defined areas of origin.
Sourcing our tea
Ceylon Kandy Silver Tip has been chosen for its distinctive, balanced flavour, aroma and appearance. Our tea is carefully sourced from long-established shippers. We can therefore guarantee the quality and origin of each tea and that it conforms to UK food and drink health regulations and our own demanding grading requirements.
The benefits of loose leaf tea
This loose leaf tea enables the full flavour characteristics of the tea to infuse. This tea is chosen for its high grade which imparts the flavour and aroma characteristics for which this tea is best known. A little extra time is necessary when infusing large leaf grades but you will be rewarded with a superior, more balanced cup. You will be well rewarded for your patience!
Packing options
There are generally several packing options to choose from. These are 60 grams, 125 grams and 250 grams, the default being 125 grams in a packet. Our tough resealable packets contain a moisture barrier to ensure freshness is maintained and are specifically designed for tea. Alternatively, you can select a tin caddy for your tea. These square, silver coloured caddies have hinged lids. Again, 60 gram, 125 gram and 250 gram options are generally available as options which can be selected from the drop-down list. Packets and caddies have full-colour labels.
Delivery options
For delivery our standard shipping is second class post unless you choose an alternative option such as first class post or courier. Free UK shipping is available for orders over £30 and free first class post can be chosen for orders over £50.
Storing your tea
Store your tea with care by ensuring it is stored air-tight, away from heat, light, moisture and strong aromas. Our standard best-before period is one year from packing and all teas are packed to order.
A guide to our tea
You may order our full-colour, 33 page new tea guide, available as a clickable pdf for download. For more information about buying our loose leaf teas see our page How to Buy the Best Loose Leaf Tea.

A new discovery for me -among so many to try on the Grey’s list . Deliciously light , well flavoured and a brisk, palate lifting taste , perfect in the morning with a light continental style breakfast and during the day with a biscuit. A lovely Ceylonese tea. Drunk black of course .

Service: I like the range of teas and speed of service. I have 2 comments about the website:-
1. ordering is a slow process. Price is a factor in what I order but I only find the price once I’ve clicked all the way through to the product. It would be useful to have that information upfront.
2. I have been trying to find a way to use a different delivery address but haven’t been able to find it.
Vendor response: Thank you for your constructive comments.
1. On 21st February we introduced various changes to our shopping basket and checkout which we hope will make shopping quicker and easier. We realise that having the price with the tea details can be inconvenient but many customers prefer to have all the tea details on a single page.
2. If you wish to ship to an address other than your billing address please tick the box ‘deliver to a different address’.
I hope this helps.
