For centuries Ceylon tea has been known as the finest tea around the world.

Tea was first introduced to Sri Lanka  (formerly known as Ceylon)  by James Taylor in 1867/

There are three main types of Ceylon tea:

• The first and most popular is the black tea, and also the most complicated.  The complication arises from the fact that the stem and leaves of the tea plant are used when making black tea.  Authentic black Ceylon tea is made using aged stems and fermented leaves.

• The second type, Ceylon green tea avoids the fermentation process.  This ensures the tea leaf remains green and gives the brewed cup of tea a yellowish-green colour.  The tea leaves are either pan-fried or steamed right after the rolling process to stop further fermentation.

• Thirdly, Ceylon white tea, also known as 'Silver Tips'.  Only the 'bud' is handpicked and sun-dried.  A special clone of the Camellia Sinensiss is used to pluck these siler tips which are longer and bolder than usual buds.  Silver tips are known to carry the most amount of health benefits as it is the least processed tea.​​​​​​​
