Taste

Ceylon tea is undeniably unique in its taste. With tea originating from three different elevations; high, mid and low grown, each type is varied in their taste, colour, strength, aroma and texture due to the elusive elements that form the true quality in tea. The characteristics of Ceylon teas are heavily influenced by its terroir; and by nature, itself; from soil and wind conditions to moisture and precipitation levels. Dilmah is unique in maintaining an unwavering commitment to the integrity of origin.
