Bold, intense Ceylon black tea blend with fiery spices and hints of brandy— Named in tribute to the legendary Suicide Club, the exclusive gambling circle of Sri Lanka’s wealthiest planters — where fortunes were won and lost on a single roll of the dice.

This exceptional tea captures that same fearless legacy: rich, robust flavors forged from the heart of Handunugoda Estate, blending deep amber notes with a smooth, invigorating finish that rewards the bold.Embrace the thrill of true Ceylon heritage — where every sip is a calculated risk worth taking. A true collector’s gem from Herman Teas: bold history in every leaf.

Description
Dare to sip the legend. Suicide Club is no ordinary Ceylon black tea—it’s a daring, full-bodied blend inspired by Herman Gunaratne’s gripping memoir The Suicide Club: A Virgin Tea Planter’s Journey. This bestselling book chronicles the high-stakes world of Sri Lanka’s plantation elite, where fortunes (including parts of Handunugoda Estate itself) were won and lost on the roll of the dice in an exclusive gamblers’ circle known as the Suicide Club.
True to its name, this premium Sri Lankan black tea delivers a bold, robust liquor with rich, malty depth, subtle smoky undertones, and a spirited kick that lingers—like a brandy-infused evening tale told by firelight. It’s crafted for those who crave intensity: strong enough to stand up to a splash of milk or even a hint of your favorite spirit for an after-dinner twist, yet smooth and satisfying when enjoyed pure.
