Dimbula
Tea |
Refreshingly Mellow
Dimbula tea,
undoubtedly the most well-known name associated with Ceylon tea, is what
we make on our estates situated at elevations of 1,100 to 1,500 meters
above sea level. The monsoon rains and the cold-dry weather of the
western slopes of the mountains help us produce a range of teas, from
full bodied to light and delicate.
The cold winds that blow throughout the nights and the clear blue skies
experienced during the daytime from late January to early April create
biological changes in the tea bushes, bringing forth, larger than
average leaves which give a distinct Dimbula flavor found nowhere else
in Sri Lanka or in the world.
You may lace your Dimbula tea which is a rosy red, and manufactured
during the “season” in the first four months of the year, with milk or
enjoy it as it is, plain and invigorating.
