We source our black teas from a boutique tea estate in the mountainous Uva region of Sri Lanka. High altitude grown teas from this region are considered to be some of the best in the world due to their well-defined flavor, strength and aroma. The cool climate, mountain soil and famous trade winds which sweep across the Indian Ocean give teas from this area their unique character.
The Estate whilst producing some of the finest teas in the region is to be commended for their commitment to their people and the environment. The plantation looks after the tea families with housing and a purpose built school to educate the worker's children. The Estate is certified organic, fair trade, carbon neutral and partners with the Ethical Tea Alliance.
