Introduction Welcome to the enchanting journey of Ceylon Tea, a beverage that embodies the legacy of Sri Lanka's lush tea plantations and centuries-old tradition. As a distinguished tea export company based in the heart of this picturesque island, we take pride in presenting the fascinating history that has shaped Ceylon Tea into a global sensation.
Origins The story of Ceylon Tea dates back to the 19th century when James Taylor, a Scottish planter, planted the first tea bushes in the central highlands of Sri Lanka. This pioneering effort marked the birth of a thriving industry that would soon become synonymous with the island nation.
The Ceylon Tea Industry the Ceylon Tea Industry flourished under British colonial rule, with vast plantations spreading across the cool and misty hills of regions such as Nuwara Eliya, Kandy, Dimbula, Uva, Udapussellawa. Ruhuna, Sabaragamuwa are classified as low-grown tea regions in Sri Lanka. These low-grown areas are characterized by a warmer climate and lower elevations compared to the higher regions like Nuwara Eliya.
Tea grown in low-grown regions tends to have different characteristics in terms of Flavour, aroma, and appearance compared to tea from higher elevations. The environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity, influence the tea plants and contribute to the unique profiles of teas produced in each region. The diversity of elevation and climate in Sri Lanka allows for the cultivation of various types of tea, making it a renowned and diverse tea-producing country.
These diverse regions, each characterized by unique climate and elevation, provided ideal conditions for cultivating tea plants, contributing to the growth and success of the tea industry in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The British introduced and promoted tea cultivation on a large scale, transforming the landscape and economy of the country. Today, Sri Lanka remains one of the world's leading tea producers, and its tea is celebrated globally for its distinctive flavours and high quality.
Transformation and Independence After gaining independence in 1948, Sri Lanka (formerly known as Ceylon) continued to build on its tea legacy. The industry adapted to changing times, embracing modern cultivation and processing techniques while maintaining the essence of traditional craftsmanship.
Global Recognition Ceylon Tea quickly earned a reputation for its exceptional quality and diverse range of flavours, captivating tea enthusiasts worldwide. The iconic Lion Logo, symbolizing the product's authenticity, became a hallmark of Ceylon Tea.
