Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka produces some of the best black teas in the world today.
High-grown delights such as Nuwara Eliya and the Somerset are bright and strong and flavoury. Lower-grown teas from the Kandy region are richer and thicker and make great breakfast teas.
There really is something for everyone in our frankly excellent collection of Ceylon teas. Discovering all the teas that this tiny jewel in the Indian ocean produces would be a lifetime’s labour of love.
