    1. For those who appreciate good tea..

      Posted by NVK on 5th Aug 2011

      I grew up drinking tea and always it was good quality tea. Mlesna BOPF was one of them. Being SriLankan it is no surprise. When I came to USA ten years ago, it was hard to find good tea. Whenever I go back home, this is the only thing that I bring back to US. A suitcase full of Mlesna BOPF. Few of my friends ( non srilankans) who are hardcore tea drinkers tasted this tea and instantly liked it. Therefore I know it is one of the best. However for me and my husband it is the BEST tea in the world. I am so glad that I can buy this from myworldhut and I just ordered ten of the one pound containers.
      One more thing, I make my tea very strong and add milk. However you can drink it without milk and if you do one cup of tea needs only 1/4 teaspoon of tea. Also brewing time is the key factor for a quality cup of tea. It should be 3minutes. Not more than that. The tea will taste bitter if you steep it for more than 3mins.

    2. Best Tea for Strong Milk Tea

      Posted by Don Hanuman on 5th Aug 2011

      BOP Fanning tea contains smaller, finer particle than that found in BOP. I have tasted most BOPF brands from Sri Lanka and this is the best. This tea has the perfect blend of three qualities found in black teas: the Body (tastiness), the Aroma (smell) and the Tannins (bitterness), thus creating a strong, smooth, aromatic milk tea for breakfast (Note that you will need to use only full or 2% milk which should be scalded). None of these three qualities over power each other, and the aroma rivals those of highly priced BOP or OP teas from Assam or Nuwara Eliya.
