Tea holidays
- Ceylon tea, the best tea in the world is recognized for its high antioxidants level, dropping the danger of developing cancer, and help to prevent oral infections.
The commercial cultivation of tea in Sri Lanka was started in 1867 by the Scotsman, James Taylor at Loolecondera estate in Kandy It was a 19-acre tea plantation. In 1873 he was able to export the first Ceylon tea consignment of 23 lbs from Loolecondera Estate to London.
There are different varieties of teas that can be found in Sri Lanka namely White tea, Green tea, oolong tea, and most common black tea. Some plantation fields and factories specialized for the above verities.
Tea plantations are at the rocky, remote central highlands where rolling hills spread for miles. The weather is cooler than the coast. The mountains are spotted with lakes, waterfalls, and tea factories.
Do you ever wonder how your favorite brand of tea reaches your kitchen shelf and the process behind it before blending into our cups?
We offer you the opportunity to visit the central highland tea plantations and low country tea plantations, stay at tea bungalows, intermingling with tea workers, plucking tea leaves on your own, and visiting tea factories.
Since as we are Sri Lankans our culture is dedicated to hospitality first and foremost. Therefore we know very well how to serve a wonderfully delicious cup of tea at any time of the day.
Just imagine having a sip of a Ceylon tea whilst enjoying the feeling of relaxation at lush green tea plantations, a tranquil ambiance and loads of old-worldly charm in a verdant highland of Sri Lanka would be nothing short of a delight.
