A Cup of Celebration. Ceylon black tea leaves from the Court Lodge Estate in Nuwara Eliya on the island of Sri Lanka, along with full tea blossoms and white wine grapes from the Orange River Vineyard in South Africa, create an exquisite, light-colored cup with a fruity, floral profile. Infused with the essence of champagne, this blend is a true cup of celebration. Black leaves from Sri Lanka's Court Lodge Estate, blended with white wine grapes, tea flowers, marigold petals, cornflowers, natural champagne and flavored with steam-distilled vanilla.

Tamara Elias I enjoy Chardonnay in the evenings but don’t want to drink it every day. While I realize a tea isn’t going to taste the same as a wine, I was hoping for some similarities that would be satisfying. This tea has a smooth freshness about it. If you close your eyes and think hard enough, you can convince yourself you’re having a similar substitute (from the same flavor family). Obviously, that’s a stretch, but the point remains that it’s a tasty tea.
