This fine, high-grown Ceylon tea comes from the Western Highlands of Dimbula, Sri Lanka, where the hot, dry climate helps the leaves to develop their unique flavour. It's light and golden with a freshness which is almost as citrusy - and rightly hailed as a classic.

Ceylon tea hails from Sri Lanka, one of the world’s most famous tea growing nations which was known as “Ceylon” until 1972. Its central highlands are home to many historic tea estates, where the cool air, humidity and frequent rains provides a perfect climate for growing exceptional tea.
These high-grown leaves grow in two seasons – typically in February and March in the Dimbula region, and then in July and August in the Uva region. They’re prized for a mellow, delicate flavour which brews a beautiful golden tea.
We’re very selective, typically buying just once each year to give us the pick of the crop. Our tea buyers taste up to 50 of the finest teas from both seasons and select just one. That choice, the very best of the year, is what becomes Taylors of Harrogate Ceylon Tea.
