The Perfect Growing Conditions of Dimbula

The Perfect Growing Conditions: Dimbula is located in the central highlands of Sri Lanka, at an altitude of between 1,000 and 2,000 meters above sea level. The cool, misty climate and fertile soil are the perfect growing conditions for the tea bushes that thrive here. The high altitude also means that the tea leaves grow slower, resulting in a richer, more complex flavour.

 

The Uniqueness of Dimbula Black Teas

The Best Teas in Dimbula: Grown on rolling hillsides and mountainsides, Dimbula teas possess a unique character and flavour. The black teas stand out with their bright, coppery color and robust, bold taste. These teas are highly regarded for their aromatic qualities, often described as floral with hints of citrus and spice. Explore our selection of Earl Grey Black Tea, Organic Peach Apricot, Organic Lavender Earl Grey, and Cream of Earl Grey to experience the exceptional teas from this region.

 

Sri Lanka's Rich Tea Heritage

A Rich Tea Heritage: Sri Lanka has a long and rich tea heritage, dating back to the 19th century when the first tea plants were brought over from China. Today, tea is a major industry in Sri Lanka, with the country exporting millions of pounds of high-quality tea every year. The tea culture in Sri Lanka is also unique, with many tea estates offering tours and tastings, allowing visitors to experience the whole process firsthand.

 

Elevation and Flavour Infusion


Elevation and Tea Flavour: The height elevation of tea-growing regions has a significant impact on the flavour of the tea. In Dimbula, the cool mountain air slows the growth of the tea leaves, allowing them to develop more complex flavours. The high altitude also means that the tea bushes receive more sun exposure, which intensifies the flavour of the tea.
