Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ceylon tea?
Ceylon tea is black tea grown in Sri Lanka (historically called Ceylon). It is one of the world's most popular teas, known for its bright amber colour, brisk flavour, and versatility. It is the base for classic milk tea (doodh pati), masala chai, and iced tea across South Asia and the Middle East.
Is loose leaf tea better than tea bags?
Yes. Loose leaf tea uses whole or large-cut leaves that retain more essential oils, flavour compounds, and antioxidants. Tea bags typically contain dust and fannings — the lowest grade of tea. Lux Premium Ceylon gives you the full loose leaf experience at an excellent price.
How many cups does 500g make?
Using approximately 2g per cup (1 heaped teaspoon), 500g yields around 250 cups — roughly 2–3 months of daily tea for one person, or 3–4 weeks for a family of four.
