Orange pekoe (also spelled pecco) is a term mainly used to describe a grade of tea found in the grading system used for sorting black teas (Orange pekoe grading). The system is based solely upon the size of the processed and dried black tea leaves.

The term Orange Pekoe is used in the tea industry to describe a basic medium grade black tea consisting of many single whole tea leaves of a specific size;[1] however, it is usually used in popular Western culture to describe any generic black tea, or in some cases, even a specific variety of black tea. Black teas to be graded in this system must be obtained from new flushes, which are the terminal leaf bud along with a few of the youngest tea leaves
