Well, what kind of OP? Tell us more :-)!
Orange Pekoe is just the tea (leaf) grade and means "Black comprising leaf 8 to 15 millimeters long, which has fewer tips than an FOP". FOP is the largest whole leaf. Through marketing gags, there are also "subcategories" to the FOP, like FTGFOP or even SFTGFOP. At least, the leaf grade tells nothing about the quality of the tea itself!
