Ceylon tea is more than a beverage; it’s a symbol of Sri Lanka’s history and culture.
Introduced in the 1860s by James Taylor, tea transformed the island’s economy. Regions like Nuwara Eliya and Uva produce world-renowned teas, each with unique flavors shaped by high altitudes and fertile soils. Ceylon tea represents Sri Lankan hospitality and tradition, with every cup reflecting warmth and community. Today, Sri Lanka’s teas remain celebrated worldwide for their distinctive taste and enduring heritage—a timeless connection to the island’s rich past.
