Ceylon tea is a narrative of colonial ambition, natural conditions and generational craftsmanship that continues to unfold across the mist-wrapped estates of Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Hatton and Kandy. Our tea country immersions take guests inside this world: through the rows of cultivated bushes where skilled pluckers harvest the tender two-leaves-and-a-bud with practised hands; through the fragrant processing rooms of historic estates where withering, rolling, fermenting and drying transform the leaf into the world-famous brew; and into the tasting rooms where the range of Ceylon tea from bold broken-grade blacks to delicate silver-tip whites – is explored with the guidance of a master taster.
