Experience the vibrant spirit of the Black Sea. Çaykur Filiz is a high-quality Turkish black tea made exclusively from carefully selected young, tender tea leaves harvested from the fertile mountains of Rize, Turkey. The word Filiz translates to "sprout" or "bud," signifying that only the freshest growth of the tea plant is used in this premium blend.

Known for its bright crimson color, fresh floral aroma, and remarkably smooth taste, Filiz offers a refreshing and well-balanced tea experience in every cup. Its fine-cut leaf structure allows for a consistent infusion, making it the quintessential choice for a traditional Turkish breakfast or an uplifting afternoon tea in Toronto.

☕ Brewing the Perfect Sprout

To capture the delicate yet full-bodied flavor of the young Filiz leaves, follow this traditional ritual:

🥣 Measure Use 1 teaspoon of loose tea per cup. If using a Turkish teapot (çaydanlık), add the tea to the top chamber.

💧 Infuse Pour freshly boiled, soft water over the leaves. For the best result, allow the bottom pot to simmer gently, letting the steam warm the tea leaves above before adding water.

⏱️ Steep Allow the tea to rest and steep for 10–15 minutes. This patience is the key to achieving the famous Filiz clarity and depth.

🌷 The Finish Serve in a clear tulip glass to showcase the tea’s brilliant color. Pair with simit, olives, or a piece of dark chocolate from our boutique.
