Tasting Note & Distinctive Features

Grown in the misty central highlands of Sri Lanka, this Ceylon black tea brews into a bright amber cup with a brisk, full-bodied character. Expect a malty, slightly citrusy edge that softens into a smooth, lingering finish — equally good with milk or taken plain.

Unlike blended "Ceylon" teas made from leaves sourced across several countries, this tea is single-origin: picked, withered, and packed at source in Sri Lanka, with nothing added and nothing blended in. It's the same everyday cup founder Merrill J. Fernando set out to protect in 1985, when he refused to let Ceylon tea leave the island unbranded and unpacked for others to relabel.

Why single-origin matters: most "Ceylon tea" on shelves is a blend — leaves from Sri Lanka mixed with tea from other countries, then packed abroad. Dilmah packs at the source, so what's in the bag is exactly what came off the bush.

Where Our Tea Comes From

Origin

Sri Lanka

Indian Ocean Island, South Asia

The story behind Exquisitely Flavoured Teas (EFT) in Sri Lanka is rooted in the country’s rich heritage as the home of Ceylon tea, combined with a modern evolution of taste and craftsmanship. Sri Lanka has long been celebrated for producing some of the world’s finest single-origin teas, grown across distinct regions with unique climates and elevations. Building on this foundation, the concept of Exquisitely Flavoured Teas emerged as a way to elevate traditional tea into a more experiential and contemporary offering.

Rather than blending teas from multiple countries, the approach begins with pure, handpicked Ceylon tea from specific regions, preserving its natural character

I know that tea can

I know that tea can taste different from time to time. The tea you sent me was different compared with the same tea I bought in Egypt last April
