Terroir & Production

Grown in Sri Lanka’s central highlands, particularly in the Nuwara Eliya district, this tea flourishes at elevations above 1,800 metres. The mineral-rich soil, formed by ancient volcanic rock and fed by steady rainfall, combines with mountain breezes to produce leaves of fine structure and aromatic depth. This distinctive terroir defines the purity and refinement of Ceylon’s high-grown teas.
